I'm Not Running Anymore Lyrics - Mellencamp John Cougar

Holly told me, "You better give me a child" 

I said, "Holly, there's no way 

We don't even like each other all that much 

We couldn't make it one more day" 

She said, "You better look out, buster 

The next time you see me you're gonna pay" 

I said, "Holly, I'm not running anymore 

But I'm on my way" 

I'm on my way 

I'm on my way 

I'm on my way 

But I'm not running anymore 

Well I got two circus clowns here who like to fight 

They got one black eye and a bloody nose 

They are the hoodlums of my third wife 

Whatever I say they will oppose 

I try to teach those clowns something 

Like how to make it day to day 

I say, "Hey, you kids, I'm not running anymore 

But I'm on my way" 

I'm on my way 

I'm on my way 

I'm on my way 

And I'm not running anymore 

Well I look in the mirror - what the hell happened to me? 

Whatever I had has gone away 

I'm not the young kid that I used to be 

So I push the hair back out of my face 

That's O.K., I knew this would happen 

But I was hopin' not today 

Hey Baby, I'm not running anymore 

But I'm on my way 

I'm on my way 

I'm on my way 

I'm on my way 

And I'm not running anymore 

I'm on my way 

I'm on my way 

I'm on my way 

And I'm not running anymore 

For sure!
