been a while...this came quickly. I wanted something more rock...It is also only a week before I get a couple weeks off work... that probably played in to the lyrics...

lyrics

if there's one thing that I could say
to myself back in my younger days
if I thought that I would take
advice from a man who’s hair is grey

"run away now
get out while you can
gotta run away now
or you’ll end up working for the man"

if there was a chance that I could take
a trip back on my life’s parade
I can think of so much to say
I’d count the words but I’d probably stick to 8

run away now 1-2-3
get out while you can 4-5-6-7-8
run away now 1-2-3
get out while you can 4-5-6-7-8

"run away now
get out while you can
gotta run away now
or you’ll end up working for the man"

every day it’s same thing
it's the same thing
every day it’s same thing
it's the same thing
every day it’s same thing
it's the same thing
you better run away
you better run away

if there's one thing that I could say
to myself back in my younger days
and I knew that I would take
advice from a man who’s turning gray
