[Verse 1]
Well the swamp is getting deeper all the time
And the faces that I see don't seem to shine, that's right
Now there's too much Warhol hangin' off the wall
And the mystery that there used to be is gone
[Chorus]
(Let me go) Miles away
(Let me ride) Just miles away
(Don't wanna know) I'm not gonna miss it much
Gonna be driving once again
(Gonna go) Miles away
(Let me ride) Got to get outta here
(Don't wanna know) Yeah
Gonna be driving once again
[Verse 2]
Don Juan goes up in a cloud of smoke
And all those Hare Krishna's turned out to be a joke
And it's restless, restless, restless all the time
Slidin' up and down the surface of this life
Now I know that I can't say what's black and white
But if I could fly I think I'd try tonight, you know why 'cause I
[Chorus]
(Let me go) Miles away
(Let me ride) Miles away
(Don't wanna know) I'm not gonna miss ya
Gonna be driving once again
(Gonna go) Miles away
(Let me ride) Just miles away
(Don't wanna know) I'm gonna leave
Gonna be driving once again
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
(Let me go) Miles away
(Let me ride)
(Don't wanna know) I can't stand it
Gonna be driving once again
(Gonna go) Out of here
(Let me ride) I'm not gonna miss ya
(Don't wanna know) Miles away
Gonna be driving once again
[Outro]
Miles away, miles away
Miles away, miles away
Miles away, miles away
Miles away, miles away
