Oh yeah baby, Kansas City here I come Well I was standing on the corner of 4th and Main A policeman came along and asked me "What's you Name?" And I ran, and I ran 'Cause it's fine loving me and wanna stay free So I ran Well I was goin' with a girly by the name of Sue Until she said "Hey boy I wanna marry you" And I ran, and I ran 'Cause it's fine loving me and wanna stay free So I ran Let's run, oh yeah baby
I like the way you run I got a letter in the mail, it was addressed to me It said "You've been selected for the infantry" And I ran, and I ran 'Cause it's fine loving me and wanna stay free So I ran My uncle Charlie past away and left me all his dough Then Uncle Sam came knockin' and man don't you know And I ran, and I ran 'Cause it's fine loving me and wanna stay free So I ran And I ran, and I ran
