[Verse] I woke up this morning and she wasn't home Not a note not a text Not a message on my phone I went to her apartment I saw that the door was cracked All her things were scattered And there were tire tracks On the street outside I knew right away she was the kind of girl Who could make a big impression on the world Maybe they had to have her Maybe they had to have her [Chorus] And they took her away And they took her away And they took her away And they took her away I saw it in the paper That she was an instigator And they took her away And they took her away She was an instigator They said that they would never let her go So I sent a little letter to the government I know you have my girlfriend And you want her to be punished You could keep her for a while But you have to let her go She'll behave herself I swear I promise You know I swear I promise You know
