Lyrics

If there’s a plane or a bus leav in’ Dal las,

I hope you’re on it.

If (D)there’s a train mov in’ fast down the tracks,

I hope you caught it.

’Cause (D)I swear out there ain’t (Bm)where

you ought a be.

So (D)catch a ride, catch a cab and don’t you know I miss you bad.

But (D)don’t you walk to me.

(D)Ba by, (Bm)run,

(G)cut a path a cross the blue skies,

straight in a straight line, you can’t (D)get here fast e nough.

Find a truck and fire it up, lean on the gas and off the clutch.

Leave (A)Dal las in the dust.

I need you in a rush.

So, ba by, run.

If (D)you ain’t got a suit case, get a box or an old brown (D)pa per sack.

(A)Pack it light or pack it heav y.

Take a truck, take a Chev y, ba by, just come back.

There’s a short cut to the high way out of town.

Why don’t you take it?

Don’t (D)let that (D)speed lim it (D)slow you down,

go on and break it.

(D)Ba by, (Bm)run,

(G)cut a path a cross the blue skies,

straight in a straight line, you can’t (D)get here fast e nough.

Find a truck and fire it up, lean on the gas and off the clutch.

Leave (A)Dal las in the dust.

I need you in a rush.

So, ba by, run.

(D)Ba by, run.

Oh, ba by, run.

Ba by, run.

Oh, ba by, run.

Ba by, run.
