Jackie Boyz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[verse 1]
Im tired of being stuck here with no way out.
I think its time for me to hit the road
Got a car with a full tank of gas yehh.
Its just my love i guess runnin low

[hook]
Just got out on the windy city
Going through the desert
Gettin away from your love, baby
No more excuses im already on my way out
I know that you never change baby

[chorus]
Got to get outta here, far away from you
Now im going, cross country
Im not lookin back oh no
All the miles in my car are keep movin on (cross country)
Im gettin away, im gettin away, im gettin away (cross country)
Leavin it all behind, cant carry you and i (cross country)

[verse 2]
Im not expectin no traffic to make me slow down
Cuz with you i was always the last to come
Im livin my life the way i planned it
Without your baggage on the road

[hook]
Just got out on the windy city
Going through the desert
Gettin away from your love, baby

No more excuses im already on my way out
I know that you never change baby

[chorus]
Got to get outta here, far away from you
Now im going, cross country
Im not lookin back oh no
All the miles in my car are keep movin on (cross country)
Im gettin away, im gettin away, im gettin away (cross country)
Leavin it all behind, cant carry you and i (cross country)

[bridge]
Baby our love has ran its course
And i'd rather lose you than myself

[chorus]
Got to get outta here, far away from you
Now im going, cross country
Im not lookin back oh no
All the miles in my car are keep movin on (cross country)
Im gettin away, im gettin away, im gettin away (cross country)
Leavin it all behind, cant carry you and i (cross country)
[x2]

[ending]




Gotta get away.
Cross country.
