well now, meet me in the bottom
bring me my right shoes
well now, meet me in the bottom
bring me my running shoes
well, i’ll come out the window
i’ll won’t have time to lose
when you see me streakin by
please don’t be late
when you see me sneakin by
please don’t be late

know my life is at stake
well, i hope you’ll see me
i’ll come streaking by
well, i hope you’ll see me
when i’ll come streaking by
she got a bad old man
you know i’m too young to die
spoken lines to end
(faint bandmember bkgrd chant thru entire song
not all below)
‘boy, i’ve got to leave here now’
(hit the road, when you go, close that back door)
‘might be caught and then die’
(when she’s caught, then she’s stupid, you’ll die too)
‘i’m not gonna come out from under the house’
‘no, i ain’t gonna do it no more messin’
~
