Running Around Town Songtext

von Billie Ray Martin

Who's gonna lift me up
When I fall out of love?

Hey, hey, mm hmmm
Mm hmm-hmm-hmm
Mm hmm-hmm-hmm
Oh yeah, yeh hey, yay

You've been telling me
That you're leaving
That the whole thing's
Gone too far

Wherever that is
Ain't no further
Than the sound of
The shouting wars

Now what'd you have to say?
Who's gonna lift me up
When I fall out of love?
Who's gonna lift me up
When I fall out of love?

'cause it's you that I'm wanting
You that I'm craving
You that my mind's
Been thinkin' of

For a long, long time
You've been gambling
With my heart, baby
But, whatever your game
We will never be the same, again

Now won't you tell me whether
You're gona lift me up
When I fall out of love?, baby
You're gonna lift me up
When I fall out of love?

'cause excuses have uses
And, you are the user
And, you are excused
'cause they're all used up

So tell me why
When the sun goes down
My eyes are at the door
My mind is out running around town
My eyes are at the door
My mind is out running around town, yes

Talking about my reputation
Oh, don't you know
Talking about my reputation
My name is Cupid, not Stupid
Talking about my reputation
Mmmmhmmmm
Talking about my reputation
Yeah

So won't you tell me, baby
Who's gonna lift me up
When I fall out of love?
Who's gonna lift me up
When I fall out of love?

'cause it's you that I'm wanting
You that I'm craving
You that my mind's
Been dreamin' of

So won't you tell me, baby
Who's gonna lift me up
When I fall out of love?
Who's gonna lift me up
When I fall out of love?

'cause excuses have uses
And, you are the user
And, you are excused
'cause they're all used up

So tell me why
When the sun goes down
My eyes are at the door
My mind is out running around town
My eyes are at the door
My mind is out running around town, yes
