Off And Running
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.
No matter what you do, no matter what you say
I've had enough of you; I'm gonna break way
I'm off & I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here & I want out
I'd rather get my kicks; I'd rather have me fun
Ain't gonna take your tricks; my life has just begun
Well baby, I'm off & I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here & I want out
Took my love for granted & you pushed your luck too far
Well, you play things underhanded & now I know just what you are
So baby, I'm off & I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here & I want out, yeah
(instrumental)
No matter what you do, oh no matter what you say
I've had enough of you; I'm gonna break way
Oh baby I'm off & I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here & I want out
(repeat & fade):
Yes I am off & I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here & I want out
