Lyrics
Band On The Run
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Stuck inside these four walls
Sent inside forever
Never seeing no one nice again
Like you, mama, you, mama, you
If i ever get out of here
Thought of giving it all away
To a registered charity
All i need is a pint a day if i ever get out of here
If we ever get out of here
Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash
As we fell into the sun
And the first one said to be the second one there
I hope you're having fun
Band on the run, band on the run
And the jailer man and sailor sam
Were searching everyone
For the band on the run, band on the run
Band on the run, band on the run
Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh
Seeing no one else had come
And a bell was ringing in the village square
For the rabbit on the run
Band on the run, band on the run
And the jailer man and sailor sam
Were searching everyone
For the band on the run, band on the run
Yeah the band on the run, the band on the run
Band on the run, band on the run
Well, the night was falling as a desert world
Began the settle down
In the town they're searching for us everywhere
But we never will be fund
