Lyrics

Well now, baby meet me in the bottom

Bring me my running shoes

Well now, baby meet me in the bottom

Bring me my running shoes

Well, I'll come out the window

I won't have time to lose

When you see me streaking by

Please don't be late

When you see me streaking by

Please don't be late

Well, when you see me moving

Though my life is at stake

Well, I hope you'll see me

When I come streaking by

Well, I hope you'll see me

When I come streaking by

She got a bad old man

You know I'm too young to die

Oh, I got to leave here

Get caught in there

I got to come out and run now

No I ain't gonna do it no more, mister
