Lyrics

[00:24.75] Dirty people take what's mine
[00:27.80] I can leave them all behind
[00:30.90] They can never cross that line
[00:33.45] When I get to the border
[00:36.88] Sawbones standing at the door
[00:39.96] Waiting 'til I hit the floor
[00:43.00] They won't find me anymore
[00:45.65] When I get to the border
[00:49.14] Monday morning, Monday morning
[00:52.38] Closing in on me
[00:55.02] I'm packing up and running away
[00:57.56] To where nobody picks on me
[01:01.13] If you see a box of pine
[01:04.17] With a name that looks like mine
[01:07.20] Say I drowned in a barrel of wine
[01:09.86] When I got to the border
[01:14.35]
[01:37.36] A one way ticket's in my hand
[01:40.38] Heading for the chosen land
[01:43.13] My troubles will all turn to sand
[01:45.97] When I get to the border
[01:49.40] Salty boy with yellow hair
[01:52.45] Waiting in that rocking chair
[01:55.17] And if I'm weary I won't care
[01:58.37] When I get to the border
[02:01.59] Monday morning, Monday morning
[02:04.79] Closing in on me
[02:07.35] I'm packing up and running away
[02:10.00] To where nobody picks on me
[02:13.67] Dusty road will smell so sweet
[02:16.63] Paved with gold beneath my feet
[02:19.17] And I'll be dancing down the street
[02:22.21] When I get to the border
[02:25.25] And I'll be dancing down the street
[02:28.35] When I get to the border
[02:31.22] When I get to the border
[02:34.27] When I get to the border
