Getaway Uncle Walt's Band

All of the ground is turning green and Johnny's working on a big machine
Ain't much left for the working man to say...

Down at the store they are selling the ground and the teenagers are tearing the church house down
Someday I'm going to make my getaway...

Someday, Someday, All of the children of the heavenly kingdom going to run away, make a getaway

Yes papa needs a rest cause he's working so hard and mama find enough troubles in her own backyard
Ain't much left for the family man to say...

Grandpa's dreams are turning to dust, and everybody's gone that he'd come to trust
Someday I'm going to make my getaway...

Someday, Someday, All of the children of the heavenly kingdom going to run away, make a getaway

Down at the bar Billy's out on his face one time for sure he's found a resting place
Ain't much left for the drinking man to say...

People on the streets seem to pay no mind after all it's just the end of one hard time
Someday I'm going to make my getaway...

All the children saying
Someday, Someday, All of the children of the heavenly kingdom going to run away, make a getaway
Oh-O-Oh
Someday, Someday, All of the children of the heavenly kingdom going to run away, make a getaway...
