Well I'm tired of the pressure, so tired of the pace
Just wanna grab you baby and get out of this place
I got no chance of makin' it, working downtown
And walkin' slow and talkin' low and tired of goin' down, down, down
Yeah!
Start the car
We gotta move
This ain't no livin'
This ain't no groove
It's been a long hard road
Come on baby, drive it home
Start the car
Well, we started out for paradise, it ain't no Promised Land
This ain't no kind of livin' for an honest working man
There's people dyin' on the streets that never make the news
While others livin' up on the hill singin' the white boy blues
Start the car
We gotta move
This ain't no livin'
This ain't no groove
The city's rich
We're dirt poor
Somewhere waiting
Is something more
Start the car
Well we're goin' out with dignity
Goin' out with style
Gonna lay down that hammer baby
And make our own road across the miles
'Cause I can't take this town one more day baby
Start the car
We gotta move
This ain't no livin'
This ain't no groove
The city's rich
We're dirt poor
Somewhere waiting
There's gotta be something more
Start the car
We gotta move
This ain't no livin'
This ain't no groove
It's been a long hard road
Now come on baby, drive it home
Start the car
Yeah, start the car baby
