Jimmy Buffett - Everybody's On The Run lyrics

Everybody's On The Run

By: Jimmy Buffett, Marshall Chapman, Will Jennings, Michael Utley

1985

"I talk to more answering machines in a day, than I do to

people. Nobody's home."

First time I ran was to the end of the block

But I didn't know then that it never would stop

Now I look around and what do I see

More and more people runnin' faster than me

These days

Everybody's on the run

These days

Everybody's on the run

Well I fell in love for the very first time

But I couldn't keep up with that girl of mine

Night after night on a mighty fast track

She ran like the wind and she never looked back

These days

Everybody's on the run

These days

Everybody's on the run

-- Spoken: "Let's run"

These days

Everybody's on the run

These days

Everybody's on the run

Now I've been to England and I've been to France

I learned to love oysters and I know how to dance

Someday I'll die and come back again

As some little boy just-a runnin' to win

These days

Everybody's on the run

These days

Everybody's on the run

Look in the mirror and what do I see

The gypsy and fool that I always will be

These days

Everybody's on the run

These days

Everybody's on the run

These days

Everybody's on the run

These days

Everybody's on the run
