Kurtis Blow — Getaway

[Verse 1] I gotta move, I gotta split I haven't got the time to sit I gotta take what I can get and get away I gotta jump, I gotta shout I gotta go without a doubt I've got to turn this sucker out and get away Nothin' shakin' nine-to-five, nothin' but some workin' jive If you want to stay alive you'll get away Take a car, take a train, if you have to take a plane Otherwise you'll go insane, so get away! [Chorus] Got to get away, got to get away, get away Listen what the people say everyday, get away Got to listen to the sound, funky music goin' 'round Happenin' all over town, get on up and get it like you get away Goo-got-got-got-got-got to get away Goo-got-got-got-got-got to get away! Got to get away, got to get away, get away Listen what the people say everyday, get away Got to listen to the sound, funky music goin' 'round Happenin' all over town, get on up and get it like you get away Goo-got-got-got-got-got to get away Goo-got-got-got-got-g-g-got to get away! Goo-got-got-got-got-got to get away G-g-g-g-g got to get away! [Verse 2] If you work you've got to play, got to take a holiday Hop into your Chevrolet and get away Watch a movie, see a show, forget about the status quo Doesn't matter where you go, just get away When my working day is done, hit the pavement on the run Gonna have a little fun and get away Ain't you sick of where you at, grab your coat and get your hat Put out the dog and feed the cat and get away! [Chorus] Got to get away, got to get away, get away Listen what the people say everyday, get away Got to listen to the sound, funky music goin' 'round Happenin' all over town, get on up and get it like you get away [Instrumental Bridge] [Refrain] I gotta move, I gotta split I haven't got the time to sit I gotta take what I can get and get away I gotta jump, I gotta shout I gotta go without a doubt I've got to turn this sucker out and get away Nothin' shakin' nine-to-five, nothin' but some workin' jive If you want to stay alive you'll get away Take a car, take a train, if you have to take a plane Otherwise you'll go insane, so get away! [Chorus] Got to get away, got to get away, get away Listen what the people say everyday, get away Got to listen to the sound, funky music goin' 'round Happenin' all over town, get on up and get it like you get away Goo-got-got-got-got-got to get away, he he Goo-got-got-got-got-got to get away!
