Lyrics

I'm a road runner, honey
(Beep-beep)
(Beep-beep)
(Beep-beep!)
(Beep-beep!)
I'm a road runner, honey
And you can't keep up with me
(Beep-beep)
I'm a road runner, honey
And you can't keep up with me
(Beep-beep)
Come on, let's race
Baby, baby, you will see
(Beep-beep)
Here I come
(Beep-beep!)
Move over, honey
Let me by
Move over, baby
Let this man by
I'm gonna show you baby, look out your head
Gonna put some dirt in your eye
Here I go!
(Beep-beep, beep-beep)
Oh yea, how am I doin?
Beep! Beep!
Take my hand, baby
I'm gonna prove to you that I'm a, a road-running man
I wanna show you somethin'
That I'm the fastest in the land
Now let me by
(Beep-beep!)
Oh yeah, you said you fast
But it don't look like you gonna last
Goodbye! I've got to put you down
I'll see you some day
Baby, somewhere hangin' around
(Beep-beep!)
(Beep-beep!)
(Beep-beep!)
