Electric Light Orchestra - On The Run lyrics

AFRAID TO LIVE AND AFRAID OF DYING

WITH DOLLY PARTON

WRITER PORTER WAGONER

They say most anything you eat could hurt your health

Be careful what you drink, don't harm yourself

And pollution in the air might make you sick

Makes you afraid to live, afraid that you might die too quick

Do the men that quote this danger really know

Life is gift to be enjoyed and not to worry so

The biggest danger sign that we should know

Make sure we're right with God, as through this world we go

We're afraid to live 'cause we're afraid of dyin'

And afraid to love the one we love, afraid they might be lyin'

We can't enjoy life when they say each thing might bring an early grave

We're afraid to live 'cause we're afraid of dyin'

Do the men that quote this danger really know?

Life is gift to be enjoyed, why worry so?

The biggest danger sign that we should know

Make sure we're right with God, as through this world we go

Make sure we're right with God, as through this world we go
