"Take It On The Run" Lyrics

Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you've been messing around.
They say you got a boyfriend.
You're out late every weekend.
They're talking about you and it's bringing me down.
But I know the neighborhood
And talk is cheap when the story is good.
And the tales grow taller on down the line.
But I'm telling you, babe, that I don't think it's true, babe.
And even if it is, keep this in mind.

You take it on the run, baby.
If that's the way you want it, baby,
Then I don't want you around.
I don't believe it, not for a minute.
You're under the gun, so you take it on the run.

You're thinking up your white lies.
You're putting on your bedroom eyes.
You say you're coming but you won't say when.
But I can feel it coming.
If you leave tonight, keep running
And you need never look back again.

You take it on the run, baby.
If that's the way you want it, baby,
Then I don't want you around.
I don't believe it, not for a minute.
You're under the gun, so you take it on the run.

You take it on the run, baby.
If that's the way you want it, baby,
Then I don't want you around.
I don't believe it, not for a minute.
You're under the gun, so you take it on the run.
You take it on the run, baby.
If that's the way you want it, baby,
Then I don't want you around.
I don't believe it, not for a minute.
You're under the gun, so you take it on the run.

Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you've been messing around.
