I`M UP AND I`M LEAVING.
-----------------------
I`m up and I`m leaving
Gonna spread my wings
Gonna getout the country to do big things
I`m up and I`m leaving
Getting out of this place
Gonna get on the Green Line
To join the rat race

And If you see my ma or pa
Tell them that I ain`t going far
I`m going to the great big city
I`m gonna buy What they call a car

I`m up and I`m leaving
Gonna spread my wings
Gonna getout the country to do big things
I`m up and I`m leaving
Getting out of this place

Gonna get on the Green Line
To join the rat race

And If you see my friend
The one without a name
Say to him that I`m gonna go
But I ain`t coming back again

Now listen Luke to what I say
If that Green Line comes around here
Tell all my friends
When they come to the city
I`ll buy them all a beer
I`m up and I`m leaving
Getting out of this place
Gonna get on the Green Line
To join the rat race
I`m up and I`m leaving
Gonna spread my wings
Gonna getout the country to do big things
