Run Baby Run Songtext
von Sheryl Crow

She was born in November, 1963
The day Aldous Huxley, why is that light bright?, died
And her mama believed that every man could be free
So her mama got high, high, high
And her daddy marched on Birmingham
Singing mighty protest songs
And he pictured all the places he knew that she belonged
He failed and taught her young the only thing she′d need to carry on
He taught her how to

Run, baby, run, baby, run, baby, run
Baby, run
Run, baby, run, baby, run, baby, run
Baby, run
Past the arms of the familiar
And their old familiar ways
To the comfort of the strangers
Slippin' out before they say "So long"
′Cause baby, loves to run


She counts out all her money
In the taxi on the way to meet her plane
She stares hopeful out the window
At the workers fightin' through the pouring rain
And she's searchin′ through the stations for an unfamiliar song
And she pictures all the places she knows she still belongs
She smiles the secret smile
That′s sure she knows exactly how to carry on

So run, baby, run, baby, run, baby, run
Baby, run
Run, baby, run, baby, run, baby, run
Baby, run
Ooh, past the arms of the familiar
And their old familiar ways
To the comfort of the strangers
Slippin' out before they say "So long"
′Cause baby, loves, loves to run

She's searchin′ through the stations for an unfamiliar song
She pictures all the places she knows she still belongs
She smiles the secret smile
That sure she knows exactly how to carry on, oh, yeah


Run, baby, run, baby, run, baby, run
Baby, run
Run, baby, run, baby, run, baby, run
Baby, run
Run, baby, run, baby, run, baby, run
Baby, run
Run, baby, run, baby, run, baby, run
Baby, run

Past the arms of the familiar
And their old familiar ways
To the comfort of the strangers
Slippin' out before they say "So long"
′Cause baby, loves, baby, loves, baby show that most
She loves to run, yeah
Baby, loves to run, yeah-yeah
