I can't get enough of what I need
People all around me lettin' me bleed
Waitin' for the darkness to blind the heat
I make my livin' out on the streets
Dirty livin', ahh, dirty livin'
I can't wait any longer to set myself free

Flashin' lights keep runnin' through my brain
Someone find the doctor to ease all the pain
Traffic in the city is burnin' me out
She makes me wanna jump up and shout

Dirty livin', ahh, dirty livin'
I can't wait any longer to set myself free, ahh
I can't wait any longer to set myself free, ahh
No more, no more

I've gotta get away
Dirty livin', dirty livin'
Ahh, dirty livin'

Main Line out of China is due in tonight
Mother, sister, brother are lyin' uptight
I can hear the jukebox poundin' out loud
I take my fury out on the crowd

Dirty livin', ahh, dirty livin'
I can't wait any longer to set myself free, ahh
I can't wait any longer to set myself free, ahh
No more, no more
I've gotta get away

Dirty livin', dirty livin'
It's gettin' to me, it's gettin' to me

I can't wait, I can't wait

Dirty livin', dirty livin', yeah
Why don't you set me free
