Run Me Down
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.
You gotta run me down you gotta run me down
If you want to contact me you gotta run me down
I got work to do I'm the busiest man in town
If you want to contact me you gotta run me down
When I gets my dough I'm kinda hard to find
If you want me to pay your bills you gotta run me down
Now the rooster he crowed an them old hens looked around
Said if you want to make love you gotta run me down
When I had my money you used to follow me around
Now I have got broke you gotta run me down
