Peverett - Riff Bros. Music - ASCAP
I had a woman, all`s she did was run me down,
She changed our love to jealousy, and my smile into a frown.
Now I`ve been hurt so many times, but I guess I`ll never learn.
Now I`m standin` in confusion, I don`t know which way to turn.
`Cause I still love that woman, please don`t ask me why,
We can make it if we try.
She passed by in a limousine, and slowly waved her hand,
A mink around her shoulders, and her arms around a man.
Now I was so amazed I couldn`t find a thing to say,
Just stood awhile and tried to smile, but she looked the other way.
Cruisin` through the city, she almost knocked me down,
I jump back when I hear that sound.
Don`t run me down - Don`t run me down - Don`t run me down.
My nerves are shakin` and my heart is breakin`, don`t run me down!
Here stands a troubled man who`s tired of bein` abused,
I`m tired of walkin` by myself, bewildered and confused.
I`ve got to leave you baby, but I just can`t let you go,
Now I`m inclined to change my mind when tears begin to flow.
Run me down, turn me around, I say no but you do it anyway.
You tell me lies, but I`ve got wise. What can I say? What can I say?
Don`t run me down - Don`t run me down - Don`t run me down,
My body`s shakin and my heart is achin`, don`t run me down!
{Rod - Solo}
Don`t run me down - Don`t run me down - Don`t run me down
My body`s shakin and my heart is achin`, don`t run me down!
My body`s shakin and my heart is achin`, don`t run me down!
(Don`t run me down, Don`t run me down - Don`t run me down, Don`t run me down)
(Don`t run me down, Don`t run me down - Don`t run me down, Don`t run me down....)
Don`t run me down
(Don`t run me down, Don`t run me down)
No no
(Don`t run me down, Don`t run me down)
I hate to leave you baby
(Don`t run me down)
Don`t run me down,
(Don`t run me down,)
Don`t run me, run me run me.....no!
