Mark Lee Townsend - Runnin' lyrics

[Section 1] Time to tie myself down to the train track Gonna relax and try to explain that I rarely feel alive Unless I'm running for my life Cause I'm over monsters under the bed But I got suspicion in my head That I've got the cure But I'm not so sure that I've got the cure So when I hear that whistle blow That's when I know it's time to go All I can do is run All I can do is run All I can do is run Someone tell me where to Someone tell me what from All I can do is run Time to tie myself down to the train track Gonna relax and try to explain that I rarely feel alive Unless I'm running for my life Cause I'm over monsters under the bed But I got suspicion in my head That I've got the cure But I'm not so sure that I've got the cure [Section 2] I can remember the days in my life When my future looked bright Back before mom had died Before I heard dad coughing up blood in his room And the doctor said 'son, he'll be joining Him soon Everything changed, what was bright turned to bleak Cause everyone seemed to get sick, 'cept for me And my dad's final cough, where they carted me off They stuck me in hell and they gave me a cross And said "Son, the church is all you've got now, got now, son So give your life to God now, God My son, I know you're scared, I know you're young Just say your prayers tonight Cause nobody's gonna come Cause no one loves an orphan" [Section 3] I got an old wooden village house And almost every day I'm running 'round the block I got anything anybody could ever want, it's true Baby, the cold made me move down south And I forgot to wind the grandfather clock I got anything anybody could ever want So I'm spending my time all on you I'm putting myself in your shoes I'm putting myself in your shoes I'm putting myself in your shoes, yeah And I keep on running And I keep on running I got an old wooden village house And almost every day I'm running 'round the block I got anything anybody could ever want, it's true Baby the cold made me move down south And I forgot to wind the grandfather clock I got anything anybody could ever want So I'm spending my time all on you I'm putting myself in your shoes I'm putting my health to good use I'm putting myself in your shoes, yeah And I keep on running And I keep on running
