about

This song is about is about the main character in the story as he quits he job and decides to travel to the city to find a new life.

lyrics

I pack my bags and call out of work
They will never know the difference
I bet they’ll hire some other jerk

I get in my car and head out of town
I won’t let this place bring me down

I’ll leave my old routines behind
I’ll say farewell to all I know
I’ll go to the city to find
Myplace beneath that neon glow

Things would be different and I’ll hold
On to my dreams
I won’t let them be ripped by the seams

I’ve given it all up and left it all behind
I hope that someday my journey will help me find
A new love for my life and some peace of mind

I’m going to do the things I want to do
I won’t waste time or it will all be over soon
Life won’t hesitate to pass me by
So I’ll do I want before I die and

Live my life but I won’t think twice
I’m laying cards down and rolling dice
Luck is on my side and staying close by
I’ve got a feeling. Don’t ask why.
