Lyrics
10. Run Baby Run
I went to see my girlfriend to say hello Maybe we could hold hands, find somewhere to go / I called out her name; they said she was gone / Then I saw her on the back porch, snuggled up with John
Chorus: Run baby run, when the clouds come a-rolling / Run baby run; it feels like flying / Run baby run; prison can’t catch me / Run baby run, gonna run, run, run
The holidays are happy; that’s what everyone says / Laughing and talking, stories with Uncle Fred / Sometimes I feel lost, just don’t know where to go So I hang in the background, put on a happy show Chorus
One foot then the other is how it has to start / Your legs complain, breathing hard, pounding in your heart / Each step is freedom on a journey of your own Feeling the rhythm singing my song Chorus
Like cupid with his arrow, a run is desire / A present to yourself; lift your spirits higher / Like sunshine on hills, you feel inside / Clouds and heartache please step aside Chorus
