Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She's got me running, trying to find her
Like a diesel on tracks behind her
Though I know from me she wants to escape
Fool, I am, I won't accept my fate
So I'm running and I'm so tired
Can't stop now 'cause she's got such a head start
Any day I know I'm steppin' to find
Another man holdin' what once was mine
Still running
[Verse 2]
They say love can be so blind
And it can almost drive you outta your mind
Look an me, and educated fool
Lovin' this woman has made me blow my cool
[Verse 3]
So I'm running, trying to find her
Like a diesel on tracks behind her
Any day I know I'm steppin' to find
Another man holdin' what once was mine
Still running
Tryna get somewhere, but ah!
[Verse 4]
Still running, mama
Still running, baby
Still tryna get it together somehow now
Let me tell ya one more time
[Verse 5]
They say love can be so blind
And it can almost drive you outta your mind
Look an me, and educated fool
Lovin' this woman has made me blow my cool
[Verse 6]
So I'm running, running, running, running
Running, running, running, baby
Don't you know that I'm running?
Running, running, running, running
Running, running, running, running
Running, running, running, running
And I'm too busy to be running, baby
Don't you know I'm getting out of breath, honey
And I can't take it much longer, honey
