Runnin'

Hey! Ooh
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah

I was born in the USA
I get on my town in my early age
I wondered around out of Mexico
Up to Canada, yeah
All across the USA
I didn't know where to stay, yeah
I was runnin' from my past
I was runnin' from my future
And I didn't care which would last

(I was runnin') I was runnin'
(I was runnin') I was runnin' scared
(I was runnin') I was runnin' from the law
(I was runnin')

I went to New Orleans one day
Over to Atlanta, Georgia
I played in Californ-I-A
San Fransisco and Oakland
Seattle, Tacoma, Phoenix, Arizona
I played all those honky tonks
Down in Texas and Oklahoma, Yeah
Hey!

(I was runnin') I was runnin'
(I was runnin') I was runnin'
(I was runnin') I was runnin'
(I was runnin') I was runnin'

Didn't know what time it was
I walked outside in the morning
I didn't meet my plane in time
No one gave me no warning
Well I was lost from my head to my feet
How was I to know I had a plane to meet
Just another gig and a late night show
Well by the time I got there, it was time to go
