Lyrics
Running Away
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.
There's a lot of teardrops falling,
There's a lot of bus stops calling,
Telling me that I could run away.
But all I've got is heartache, honey,
And all I've got is brown money,
So I ain't going no place far today.
But then again
I've got two feet
And although my legs
Ain't got much meat
I know
They'll sure as hell go
Where I say.
So I'll scrap it all on my running shoes,
Bypassing those bus-ride blues.
Times got hard, so I'm running away.
Petrol fumes in my face
I love that taste
Tastes like freedom
Run run run running away
Run run running away
Run run running away
Run run running away
Run run running away
