It’s quite simple
I know which way to go
I’m not normal
I’d rather live on the edge of life
In overdrive
I know

I’m not planning
On going with the flow
Or just standing
I’d rather be in the outside lane
And act insane
You know

I always knew that
The way the world is
A free man cannot belong

I never needed
Another person
To say what’s right and what’s wrong

It all began
Down in Key Largo
You pulled a gun
Down in Key Largo

We’re on the run
Selling some cargo
We had some fun
Down in Key Largo

Since I saw you
And how you make a show
The real hero
I’d rather follow your wild life
And feel alive
You know

I always knew that
The way the world is
A free man cannot belong

I never needed
Another person
To say what’s right and what’s wrong

It all began
Down in Key Largo
You pulled a gun
Down in Key Largo

We’re on the run
Selling some cargo
We had some fun
Down in Key Largo

The deal was done
Down in Key Largo
The war was won
Down in Key Largo

And when we’re done
Down in Key Largo
We’ll have some fun
Up in Chicago.
