Take It On The Run Lyrics - Me First And The Gimme Gimmes

Heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend who 

Heard it from another you've been messin' around 

They say you got a boyfriend, you're out there every weekend 

I'm talkin' about you and it's bringin' me down 

But I know the neighborhood 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, putting on your bedroom eyes 

You say you're coming home 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 

Heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend who 

Heard it from another you've been messin' around
