Suitcase,
suitcase, follow me around
Bootlace,
bootlace, tie me down
Money for
fun, yeah, golden crowns
It's all
inside a game we've been playin' so long
Driver, driver, go too fast
Miser, miser,
make it last
Butcher,
butcher, on the run
It's all
inside a game we've been playin' so long
And I'm sorry
to be leavin'
It's all I
get to say
Sorry to be
leavin' today
[guitar solo (Pete Ham)]
And I'm sorry
to be leavin'
It's all I
get to say
Sorry to be
leavin' today
Driver, driver, go too fast
Miser, miser,
make it last
Butcher,
butcher, on the run
It's all
inside a game we've been playin' so long
(So long)
So long (so long)
So long (so long)
Hmmm, long (so long)
Ooh, long (so long)
Yeah, long (so long)
[drum fill]
So long (so long)
Yeah, long (so long)
Ooh, long (so long)
Yeah, long (so long)
Yeah, long (so long)
Yeah, long (so long)
Yeah (so long)
Ooh (so long)
(So long)
(So long).

Suitcase,
suitcase, follow me 'round
Bootlace,
bootlace, tie me down
Money for fun,
yeah, golden crown
It's all inside
a game we've been playing for so long
Driver, driver, go too fast
Miser, miser,
make it last
Pusher, pusher,
on the run
It's all inside
a game we've been playin' for so long
And I'm sorry
to be leavin'
Yeah, that's
all I get to say
'Cause I'm
sorry to be leavin' today
[guitar solo (Pete Ham)]
Well, I'm sorry
to be leavin'
But that's all
I get to say
'Cause I'm
sorry to be leavin' today
[guitar solo (Pete
Ham)]
(Driver dri-iiive)
Driver, driver, go
too fast
Miser, miser,
make it last
Pusher, pusher,
on the run
It's all inside
a game we've been playing, so long
So long [14 times].
