I don't stay long when things are going wrong,

I haven't got the time you see,

Moving from place to place, another town, a different face

You may find me

Sneaking out the back door with a grin.

Love I've had before, it nailed me to the floor,

I prefer my own company.

Love to me is being free with no responsibility,

So you may find me

Sneaking out the back door with a grin.

Just another drink and I'll be on my way,

Sneaking through the back door with a grin.

I move along when things are going wrong,

So you may find me

Sneaking out the back door with a grin.
