Verse 1:
Well, you hoot and you holler and you make me mad
And I’ve always been under your heel
Holy Christ‚ what a lousy deal
Now I’m sick and tired of your tedious ways
And I ain’t gonna take it no more
Oh no no‚ walkin’ out that door

Chorus:
Burning my bridges‚ cutting my ties
Once again I wanna look into the eye
Being myself, counting my pride
No un-right neighbour’s gonna take me for a ride
Burning my bridges, moving at last
Girl I’m leaving and I’m burying the past
Gonna have peace now‚ you can be free
No one here will make a sucker out of me

Verse 2:
Well, you hoot and you holler and you make me mad
And I’ve always been under your heel
Holy Christ, what a lousy deal
Now I’m sick and tired of your tedious ways
And I ain’t gonna take it no more
Oh no no‚ walkin’ out that door

Chorus:
Burning my bridges, cutting my ties
Once again I wanna look into the eye
Being myself, counting my pride
No un-right neighbour’s gonna take me for a ride
Burning my bridges, moving at last
Girl I’m leaving and I’m burying the past
Gonna have peace now, you can be free
No one here will make a sucker out of me

Chorus:
Burning my bridges, cutting my ties
Once again I wanna look into the eye
Being myself, counting my pride
No un-right neighbour’s gonna take me for a ride
Burning my bridges, moving at last
Girl I’m leaving and I’m burying the past
Gonna have peace now, you can be free
No one here will make a sucker out of me
