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 it 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.
