"No Way Out" lyrics

"No Way Out"

Can't you see I'm shaking in my shoes?
I've done everything, but I still got the blues
Everywhere I turn, there's misery
Stuck in the middle of a nowhere street

Go away, come back, where you going?
Don't do that, do this, don't you blow it
Run, don't walk, shout, don't talk about it
You don't know anything about it

It's no good, there's no way out (No way out)
A fine affair and there's no doubt (There's no doubt)
That there's no way out, no way out

She left some money in a paper sack
And a note to say she ain't coming back

(I'm walking) It's no good, there's no way out
A fine affair and there's no doubt
That there's no way out, no way out

They're coming at me from everywhere
They say she's already gone from here

Go away, come back, where you going?
Don't do that, do this, don't you blow it
Run, don't walk, shout, don't talk about it
You don't know anything about it

It's no good, there's no way out
A fine affair and there's no doubt
That there's no way out, no way out

No way out (No way out)
No way out (No way out)
No way out
No way out (No way out)
No way out (No way out)

(It's no good, there's no way out)
(A fine affair and there's no doubt)
