I broke out of jail on a dark and rainy day
The warden in my way - oh Lord I make them pray
I got me a gun, stole a police car
Broke right through the gates, pedal to the floor
Away, away, on the way to my baby,
Way, away, and I know she will wait for me
Away, yeah, it's a race with the devil
A game I play for good and for evil
Gotta follow my way, the way to my baby
Way, away, on the way to my baby,
Way, away and I know she will wait for me
In a hurry on the flight, no place to run or hide
Robbed a bank, was hard up for cash
Got myself some cocaine and hash
The whole night I felt sick and ill
Too much drugs, booze, too much pills
But I decided not to die, cheat the devil with my evil eye
Away away, on the way to my baby,
Way, away, and I know she will wait for me
Away, yeah, it's a race with the devil
A game I play for good and for evil
Gotta follow my way, the way to my baby
Way, away, on the way to my baby,
Way, away and I know she will wait for me
Crashed the car into a gas station
Let this motherf***** burn
Jumped through the flames
Shouting out my baby's name
Got myself into trouble, but I won't give in
Smashed the church door, menaced the priest to take away my sins
Away, away I will pray, say: Will it be the devil who will wait for me?!
Away, yeah, it's a race with the devil
A game I play for good and for evil
Away, yeah, it's a race with the devil
A game I play for good and for evil
Gotta follow my way, the way to my baby
Way, away, on the way to my baby,
Way, away and I know she will wait for me
And I know she will wait for me
And I know she will wait for me
The warden in my way - oh Lord I make them pray
I got me a gun, stole a police car
Broke right through the gates, pedal to the floor
Away, away, on the way to my baby,
Way, away, and I know she will wait for me
