Song Title:	Take The Money And Run
Visits:	669

I was caught up in a fever

In that summer of ?69

And my heart was cryin' out for change

And I knew time was comin' when I'd get away.

So I moved down to that city

Where I met a friend of mine

And I must admit he tried to warn me well

With all those bad luck stories he could tell.

He said "Take the money and run,

Take the money and run

Believe it, in this town you can't trust anyone

You're gonna learn that lesson my son".

"Take the money and run,

Buy yourself a place in the sun

Don't be a fool, don't you trust anyone

You gotta take the money and run, take the money and run".

He was broken, he was wasted

He'd been brought down to his knee

And his heart was crying out for truth

You could see the whole world's sadness in his eyes.

So I took good care of business

At least as far as I could see

I could read the signs and I knew all the lines

But so many times his voice came back to me.

"Take the money and run,

Get it at the point of a gun

Believe it, in this town you can't trust anyone

You're gonna learn that lesson my son".

"Take the money and run,

Buy yourself a place in the sun

Don't be a fool, don't you trust anyone

You gotta take the money and run, take the money and run".

I've been wanderin' through this wasteland

Where the blind go leading the blind

And the only sound on the money-go-round

Was the million voices waiting to be found.

I could only hear a whisper

It was comin' from the one I loved

And her heart was saying this can't be right

All my wasted days and all her lonely nights.

Take the money and run,

Get it at the point of a gun

Believe it, n this town you can't trust anyone

You're gonna learn that lesson my son.

Take the money and run,

Buy yourself a place in the sun

Don't be a fool, don't you trust anyone

You gotta take the money and run, take the money and run.

Get It Right Next Time "Get It Right Next Time Gerry Rafferty Out on the street I was talkin' to a man He said "there's so much of this life of mine that I don't understand"..."	Baker Street "Winding your way down on Baker Street Light in your head and dead on your feet Well another crazy day You drink the night away..."
Moonlight And Gold "Moonlight and gold Midsummer magic when the night turns to day And songbirds greet the dawn You lie awake..."	Stuck In The Middle With You "Well I don't know why I came here tonight I got the feeling that something ain't right I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs..."
Night Owl "Night comes down and finds you alone In a space and time of your own Lost in dreams in a world full of shadows Down the street the neon light shines..."	Waiting for the Day "Well here I am, back in town Just as the night is comin' down Warm wind blowin' through the trees I watch them swing, I watch them sway..."
Right Down the Line "You know I need your love, You got that hold over me Long as I got your love, You know that I'll never leave When I wanted you to share my life, I had no doubt in my mind And it's been you, woman, right down the line..."	Bring It All Home "I was lost on an endless sea Going down, going down, going down on an endless sea Sail with the wind, you weather the storm You bring it all home, bring it all home, you bring it all home...."
