This Way Up - Brian Ray

Let’s go riding in my car

just hit the gas

and we’ll outrun the past

let’s go drivin' like the fools they say we are

we’ll turn this thing around

the whole world’s upside down

I said hey, hey, hey it’s time to make our getaway

I said hey, hey, hey talkin' ‘bout a great escape

so hold on tight, ride with me

we’ll storm the gates

like Steve McQueen

and it’s this way up

it doesn’t matter who you are

or who you think you are

if you have a heart

forget that crap you learned

back in your little school

they changed the rules last night

they said that wrong was right

I said hey, hey, hey it’s time to make our getaway

I said hey, hey, hey talkin' ‘bout a great escape

so hold on tight, ride with me

we’ll crash the gates

like Steve McQueen

and it’s this way up
