Heard it from a friend who Heard it from a friend who Heard it from another you been messin around They say you got a boy friend Youre out late every weekend Theyre talkin about you and its bringin me down
But I know the neighborhood And talk is cheap when the story is good And the tales grow taller on down the line But Im telling you, babe That I dont think its true, babe And even if it is keep this in mind
{refrain
You take it on the run baby If thats the way you want it baby Then I dont want you around I dont believe it Not for a minute Youre under the gun so you take it on the run
Youre thinking up your white lies Youre putting on your bedroom eyes You say youre coming home but you wont say when But I can feel it coming If you leave tonight keep running And you need never look back again
