Gotta Get Away
Escape the Echoes: A Journey from Heartbreak to Freedom
Lyrics
I got paid when I was on the road
I received payment while traveling
In a heartbeat, mama said mama said
Urgent advice from mother
You got a one track mind, but you ain't gonna get all the time
Narrow focus, but time is limited
She wasn't lyin'
Confirmation of truth
I went from San Berdoo to Kalamazoo
Traveled extensively to escape
Just to get away from you
Expressing the need to distance oneself
I searched far and wide, hopin' I was wrong
Thorough search, hoping for a mistake
But baby all the good women are gone
Belief that quality women are no longer available
My rent's down, got used up
Financial difficulties and exhaustion
On gasoline, know what I mean, what I mean
Expenses on fuel, emphasizing the struggle
Atlanta, GA by the end of the day
Travel destination: Atlanta, GA
No other way, that's what I say
No alternative, emphasizing the decision
I went from San Berdoo to Kalamazoo
Repeated desire to escape from a person
Just to get away from you
Reiteration of the need to distance
I searched far and wide, hopin' I was wrong
Continued search, questioning previous hope
But baby all the good women are gone
Reaffirmation that desirable women are scarce
And everything I had to say
Expression of unspoken thoughts
Wish we'd gone so far away
Regret about not going further away
Well now I
Interrupted thought about leaving
Can't stay
Inability to remain in the current situation
Blacktop, I can't stop
Unstoppable movement on the road
For no one, it's no fun, no fun
No enjoyment without someone
With a one track mind if you don't get lucky some time
Emphasis on the challenge of finding love
But still I'm tryin'
Persistence despite challenges
I went from San Berdoo to Kalamazoo
Repetition of the effort to escape
Just to get away from you
Reiterating the need to get away
I searched far and wide, hopin' I was wrong
Continued search, doubting previous hope
But baby all the good women are gone
Reaffirmation that desirable women are scarce
I went from San Berdoo to Kalamazoo
Repeated desire to escape from a person
Just to get away from you
Reiteration of the need to distance
I searched far and wide, hopin' I was wrong
Continued search, questioning previous hope
But baby all the good women are gone
Reaffirmation that desirable women are scarce
