"Everybody's On The Run" lyrics

First time I ran was to the end of the block
But I didn't know then that it never would stop
Now I look around and what do I see?
More and more people runnin' faster than me

These days
Everybody's on the run
These days
Everybody's on the run

Well, I fell in love for the very first time
But I couldn't keep up with that girl of mine
Night after night on a mighty fast track
She ran like the wind and she never looked back

These days
Everybody's on the run
These days
Everybody's on the run
Let's run!

These days
Everybody's on the run
These days
Everybody's on the run

Now I've been to England and I've been to France
I learned to love oysters and I know how to dance
Someday I'll die and come back again
As some little boy just a-runnin' to win

These days
Everybody's on the run
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

These days
Everybody's on the run
These days
Everybody's on the run
