First time I ran Was to the end of the block I didn't know then That it never would stop Mow I look around And what do I see More and more people Running faster then me These days Everybody's on the run When I fell in love For the very first time I couldn't keep up With that girl of mine On a mighty fast track She ran like the wind And she never looked back These days Everybody's on the run Now I've been to England And I've been to France I've learned to love oysters And I know how to dance Someday I'll die And come back again As some little boy Just running to win These days Everybody's on the run Look in the mirror And what do I see The gypsy and fool that I always will be These days Everybody's on the run These days Everybody's on the run
