Dippy Doo, Run, Run, Run (x8)
Hey, I'm taking my bag
And I'm running away now
Cause you've been mean to me
And I've been good to you
And I've been oh so strong
HEY YA YA HAA HAA
Hey, I'm taking my bag
And I'm running away now
Cause you've been mean to me
And I've been good to you
And I've been oh so strong
HEY YA YA HAA HAA
You don't spend the time when I'm in need
We don't love each other like we used to do
Baby I'll come back another day
You don't do the thing you used to do
Running, Running, Running, Far Away (x2)
Running Away
Hey, I'm taking my bag
And I'm running away now
(Cause I'm running away)
Cause you've been mean to me
(Running Away)
And I've been good to you
(Cause I'm running away)
And I've been oh so strong
(Running Away)
HEY YA YA HAA HAA
(Cause I'm running away)
Dippy Doo, Run, Run, Run (x12)
