40oz. to Freedom

[Verse 1]

Got your hair permed, you've got your red dress on

Screaming that second gear was such a turn-on

And the fog forming on my window tells me that the morning's here

And you'll be gone before too long

Who taught you those new tricks? Damn, I shouldn't start that talk

But life is one big question when you're starin' at the clock

And the answer's always waiting at the liquor store

40 ounces to freedom so I'll take that walk

And I know that

[Chorus]

Oh, I'm not going back

Oh, not going back

Oh, God knows, I'm not going back

Oh, I not going

[Verse 2]

And you look so fine, when you lie, it just don't show

But I know which way the wind blows

A 40 ounce to freedom is the only chance I have

To feel good, even though I feel bad

And I know that

[Chorus]

Oh, I'm not going back

Oh, I'm not going back

Oh, God knows (God knows) I'm not going back

Oh, I, not going

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]

Oh, ah (ah) I'm not going back

Oh, I'm not going back

Oh, God knows (God knows) not going back

Oh
