Dropkick Murphys - Take It And Run lyrics

Maureen's out on the street again Didn't get the job 'cause she missed her appointment She don't know if the kids are fed They've got holes in their shoes and the cold's coming quick now The power's off the bill's ain't paid gotta jump the box for the neighbor's apartment Space heaters and welfare checks are as good as it gets in this land of hard lessons [Chorus:] Don't talk to me if you ain't got the answers that I need Yeah I've got problems Can't you see I'm trying to solve them? Broke it off with the man in her life finally got the courage to pack up and leave now She keeps saying she'll be all right but in her mind does she really believe it Long lines on Piedmont Street but if you hang around you might get a bed there Turn around and don't look back you've got a piece of your life so take it and run now [Chorus] The sun is shining on you Maureen may all your dreams come true Broke it off with the man in her life you know she ain't got nothing better Yeah you know she don't but she keeps on believing The sun is shining on you Maureen may all your dreams come true
