[Verse 1]
Been on the fire sixteen years
Just waiting for his time to come
He fought the lies, fought back the tears
Can't wait to hear that starting gun

There ain't nobody gonna step on his dream
So he held his hands high and screamed

[Chorus]
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, take me far away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell

[Verse 2]
He's on the edge, he can feel it in his heart
This time the pressure's really on
He's gonna fight it, might even steal a guitar
This time tomorrow he'll be gone, whoa

There ain't nobody gonna tell him what to do
Think he's a little like me and you, yeah

[Chorus]
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, take me far away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, yeah
Whoa

[Guitar solo]

[Verse 3]
He's on the run, won't stand for second place
But his turn may never come, whoa
He's not a victim, you can see it in his face
But he can't see what he's become

Well, he wants it bad, but he wants no charity
He seems to think it's his destiny

[Chorus]
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, take me far away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell

Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, take me far away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell

Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need…
