Run

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Dating was my favorite pastime Seeing all the bases that I'd hit 'til the home run Taking her home once Living fast and running red lights Downing half a case of Red Striper Avoiding emotion, had a couple of close ones [Pre-Chorus] But she done gave me a run for my money She might make me wanna settle down And quit the run-around [Chorus] I've run wild like the Mississippi Run up tabs 'til the glass was empty chasing fun Had a real good run And I've run hard like a Chevy engine 'Til I'd run out of gas and women, I was young But I've grown up 'Cause eventually we all run out of time So before you let that girl walk out your life You better run [Verse 2] Crazy how your whole perspective changes off of one connection I fell for the wrong ones, not in the long run She's seen my before and after so I compelled to ask her "What made you trust me?" She said, "My love just runs deep" [Pre-Chorus] But she done gave me a run for my money She might make me wanna settle down And quit the run-around [Chorus] I've run wild like the Mississippi Run up tabs 'til the glass was empty chasing fun Had a real good run And I've run hard like a Chevy engine 'Til I'd run out of gas and women, I was young But I've grown up 'Cause eventually we all run out of time So before you let that girl walk out your life You better run
