Lyrics

[Verse 1]

If there's a plane or a bus leaving Dallas

I hope you're on it

If there's a train moving fast down the tracks

I hope you caught it

'Cause I swear out there ain't where you ought to be

So catch a ride, catch a cab

Don't you know I miss you bad

But don't you walk to me

[Chorus]

Baby, run

Cut a path across the blue skies

Straight in a straight line, you can't get here fast enough

Find a truck and fire it up

Lean on the gas and off the clutch

Leave Dallas in the dust

I need you in a rush

So baby, run

[Verse 2]

If you ain't got a suitcase get a box

Or an old brown paper sack

Pack it light or pack it heavy

Take a truck, take a chevy

Baby, just come back

There's a shortcut to the highway out of town

Why don't you take it

Don't let that speed limit slow you down

Go on and break it

[Chorus]

Baby, run

Cut a path across the blue skies

Straight in a straight line you can't get here fast enough

Find a truck and fire it up

Lean on the gas and off the clutch

Leave Dallas in the dust

I need you in a rush

So baby, run

[Outro]

Baby, run

Oh baby, run

Baby, run
