Taking It Back I've been away so long I hardly knew the place It's been too long since I've been around Just like a rolling stone I ain't go no home But my boys are back in town, kick it It's been two long years that I've been on the run From lawyers, lovers, monies and a lawman's son You thought it was the last that you heard from me Well you better back up to catch up with me 'Cause I'm livin' in the fast lane, speeding like a steam train Just before I fall, just before I fall off the track Chorus: Taking it back I'm taking it back Taking it back You took it away, took it away All I can say is we're taking it back I'm the same old dog that I used to be The word's all over town that you've been looking for me I'm no different that I was before Give you what you need and then I'm out the door 'Cause I'm livin' in the fast lane, coming like a hurricane A snake without a rattle, baby that's a matter of fact, yeah Chorus: Taking it back Taking it back Taking it back You took it away, took it away All I can say is we're taking it back I've been away so long it's good to see your face Barkeep, won't you buy me a round? Raise a glass to the good times past Then we'll tear this damn place down Chorus: Taking it back Taking it back Taking it back Taking it back Taking it back Taking it back, all right Taking it back Taking it back
