Greased lightnin' ain't got nothin' on me
I'm just about as fast as a man can be
I'll love you and leave you and be in the next town
By the time you wake up, I'm nowhere to be found

I gotta move
Can't stay in one place for too long
Don't you bother sayin' goodbye girl
'Cause I'm already gone

I'm a wanted man wherever I go
From west Helena to east Monroe
Wanted by a hundred women in hot pursuit
And ninety-nine sheriffs with orders to shoot

I gotta move
Can't stay in one place for too long
Don't you bother sayin' goodbye girl
'Cause I'm already gone

Don't want you to think that it wasn't fun
It's just my gypsy boots say it's time to move on
I'll be back this way again
With a whole lotta lovin' but until then

I gotta move
Can't stay in one place for too long
Don't you bother sayin' goodbye girl
'Cause I'm already gone
