Well If I had a nickel for every line this town put on my face
And if I had a dime for every time I said I’s fixin' to leave this place
It would help me buy the gas I’m about to pour on everything I see
I can’t be sentimental when it don’t mean nothin' to me

Let it burn, burn, just let it burn
I’m sick of hangin’ round here waitin’ for the tide to turn
It don’t matter if it’s far or near
just as long as I get outta here
Let it burn, let it burn

I worked too damn hard to wind up in this shotgun shack
To get a little behind and have the man come and take it back
They’re all breathin’ down my neck waitin’ for me to fall
if it wasn’t for bad luck I wouldn’t have no luck at all

Let it burn, burn, Mama let it burn
I can’t wait to see ‘em all when they ain’t got nowhere to turn
I watch the flames light up the sky
Blow ‘em a kiss as I wave goodbye

Let it burn, burn, just let it burn
Well I’m sick of hangin’ round here waitin’ for the tide to turn
Yeah even if I wanted to stay
They’d probably run me outta here anyway
Let it burn
