Been under fire sixteen years, just waitin' for his time to come He fought the lies, fought back the tears, can't wait to hear that starting gun There ain't nobody gonna step on his dreams So he held his hands high and screamed Get me out of this rock and roll hell, take me far away Get me out of this rock and roll hell Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away Get me out of this rock and roll hell He's on the edge, he can feel it in his heart This time the pressure's really on He's gonna fight it, might even steal a guitar This time tomorrow he'll be gone There ain't nobody gonna tell him what to do Think he's a little like me and you Get me out of this rock and roll hell, take me far away Get me out of this rock and roll hell Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away Get me out of this rock and roll hell He's on the run, won't stand for second place, but his turn may never come He's not a victim, you can see it in his face But he can't see what he's become Well, he wants it bad, but he wants no charity He seems to think it's his destiny Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away Get me out of this rock and roll hell Get me out of this rock and roll hell, take me far away Get me out of this rock and roll hell Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away Get me out of this rock and roll hell Get me out of this rock and roll hell, take me far away Get me out of this rock and roll hell Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away Get me out of this rock and roll hell
