I met her at the corner store
Sometime late in July
Long hair and a pony tail
She kinda caught my eye
As she headed for the door
That’s when I made my move
When I looked right at her
I noticed she was looking too

Next thing she was talkin’
’Bout how we’d always last
Things just started movin’
Way too far too fast... and now I’m

Runnin’ runnin’ away from you
This old truck of mine
Ain’t got room for two
The more you try to tie me down
The less I want to be around, Now I’m
Runnin’ runnin’ away from you

You’re thinkin’ you’d be good for me
And you’d probably be right
But I just can’t see me in your dreams
Night after night

That day back in July
It was all so s imple then
We don’t even have to try
I wish we could go back again, but now I’m

Runnin’ runnin’ away from you
This old truck of mine
Ain’t got room for two
The more you try to tie me down
The less I want to be around, Now I’m
Runnin’ runnin’ away from you

The more you talk about forever
The more that I start thinkin’ never
And right now I just gotta
I gotta get away

Now I’m

Runnin’ runnin’ away from you
This old truck of mine
Ain’t got room for two
The more you try to tie me down
The less I want to be around, Now I’m
Runnin’ runnin’ away from you

Oh yeah, away from you
