[Verse 1]
It's leaving time again
I'm headed out with all my friends
It's a roll of the dice
I've never thought twice
About the way I've been spending my time
Trying my guts out for every dime

[Verse 2]
Working in an office building tall
Don't know who's next to you at all
But being out here
The blood, the guts, the beer
Is a test
Only time will tell
It brings you close, man
Closer than hell

[Chorus]
We're leaving, leaving again
Can't recall where all we been
I guess we'll just go
Go till we're too old
Or we run out of road

[Verse 3]
The other day I talked to Lou
He quit back in '92
Says he misses it bad
Those were the best times he ever had
He said, "Give it hell to the end
'Cause once you quit
You can't get it back again"

[Chorus]
We're leaving, leaving again
Can't recall where all we been
I guess we'll just go
Go till we're too old
Or we run out of road

[Bridge]
Expensive cabs and shitty food
Washed down with cancelled flights
This week endorsement holidays
You miss your boy and wife
Oh the late night drives, the calls
The dawn to strike you like a knife
Hey man, this is a beautiful life
We're leaving again, leaving again...

[Chorus]
We're leaving
Leaving again
Can't recall
Where are we've been
I guess we'll just go
Go till we're too old
Or we run out of road
We're leaving
Leaving again
Can't recall
Where are we've been
I guess we'll just go
Go till we're too old
Or we run out of road
