You Keep Me Runnin'

Johnny was an animal
he knew damn well
he was in hell
waiting for his lady just to wrap it up

She didn't know that he was
so damn high
like a firefly
up against a blue night sky

All he wanted was another cigarette
a private jet
and a fully loaded gun
six or seven models
in a nice hotel
so he could end up with the finest one

He said
Girl
You keep me running
I'm running just as fast as I go
Is anybody gonna catch up to me
He said
Girl
You keep me running
I'm running just as fast as I know
Is anybody gonna catch up to me
I'm thinking no no no
She keeps me go go goin'

Happy ever after is a world next door
but the girl next door
is the only thing he ever knew
A little fire and some mystery
just to set him free
from a normal everyday ruotine
another day with the impossible
enough to go
to keep him on his toes
destiny was knocking on his door all night
and he could feel his open heart explode

He said
Girl
You keep me running
I'm running just as fast as I go
Is anybody gonna catch up to me
He said
Girl
You keep me running
I'm running just as fast as I know
Is anybody gonna catch up to me
I'm thinking no no no

*Instrumental Solo*

I'm sinking with the sun
Im sinking with the sun
I'm searching for a reason to get undone
It's time to fake a move
i need to get ahead
These aren't my words I'm just repeating what he said

Girl
You keep me runnin
I'm running as fast as I can
Is anybody gonna catch up
Is anybody gonna catch up

Girl
You keep me running
I'm running just as fast as I go
Is anybody gonna catch up to me
He said
Girl
You keep me running
I'm running just as fast as I know
Is anybody gonna catch up
Is anybody gonna catch up
