[Verse 1]
Old book says "Life is what you make it"
We are trying our best not to break it
In going to the top, sometimes you may drop
Even finding your way; gosh, at times you go astray
To reach the scene, if you dig, you must be clean
Just love each other and then you won't be bothered
[Instrumental]
[Refrain]
Now, we are sure there's no other place to go
Then can't you see, they got to let us leave
Oh yeah; oh yeah
[Instrumental]
[Refrain]
Now, we are sure there's no other place to go
Then can't you see, they got to let us leave
Oh yeah; oh yeah
[Outro]
Oh yeah (Got to let us leave)
Oh yeah (Got to, got to, got to)
