[C] [E]
[Am] [A]
[C] I better [A] keep myself from being busted.
I better keep myself out of jail.
Cause you ain't got a friend to give me trust in.
And my mama didn't put money through the bill.
I've been down on my luck.
I've been down on my wealth.
I gotta stop taking care of business.
Stop taking care of myself.
[G] I gotta leave this town.
I gotta leave this town.
[A] I gotta leave this town tonight.
Well I set off down the main street.
Which was a long, long way to go.
But before I started I was coming down the corners.
No way for my sugar to show.
I've been down on my luck.
I've been down on my wealth.
I gotta stop taking care of somebody else's business.
Stop taking care of myself.
[C] I [G] gotta leave this town.
I gotta leave this town [A] tonight.
I gotta leave this town tonight.
[G] I gotta leave this town.
I gotta leave this town.
[A] I gotta leave this town tonight.
I gotta leave this town tonight for [Am] ya.

was fooling around with Michelle's daughter.
She was a real nice rock.
But Michelle, she came out there.
And she threatened to lock me in a cell [Am] box.
[G] [A] She showed me her bag though.
She showed me her shack though.
She showed me her money.
And said, boy, I thought you'd miss me.
[G] I gotta leave this town.
I gotta leave this [A] town tonight.
I [D] gotta leave [A] this town.
I gotta leave this town tonight.
[G] I gotta leave this town.
I gotta leave this town [A] tonight.
I gotta leave this town tonight.
I gotta keep myself from being a bus man.
I got the rest of the money.
I [Am] gotta hold that child, be careful, and trust me.
