Try to run away, the darkness won't cover you
Drive a big, smooth car too far
Oh, you'd better leave, you'd better leave them now
Keep driving till you find a way out
City neon hums around what you'd think you've left behind
Your American freedom isn't worth a dime
The night's not dark enough to cover you
It's not dark enough to cover you
You'd better leave
You'd better leave
Find a way out, nothing else matters now
Keep driving till you find a way out
Your American freedom isn't worth a dime
You'd better leave
You'd better leave
Your American freedom to them ain't worth a dime
The night can hide you
The night can hide you
Night's not dark enough to cover you
The night not dark enough to cover you
The night can hide you
Night can hide you
You'd better leave
You'd better leave
You'd better leave them now
It's not dark enough to cover you
You'd better leave
You'd better leave
Run away
Run away
Run away
