Take the money and run

Like a their across a neighborÅ’s yard

Take the money and run

like a ghost out in the night

Take the money and run

`cause you found out that it wasnÅ’t hard

to take the money and run

because you were out of sight

You cannot tell me any more lies

You cannot pull the wool over my eyes

Take the money and run

Take the money and run

`cause the summer sun is sinking down

Take the money and run

`cause the four winds may not blow

Take the money and run

`cause the verdict has been handed down

Take the money and run

because thereÅ’s no place left to go

You cannot give me any more time

YouÅ’ve already taken too much of mine

Take the money and run

Take the money and run

like a thief across a neighborÅ’s yard

Take the money and run

like a dog out in the night

Take the money and run

because you found out that it wasnÅ’t hard

to take the money and run

because you were out of sight

You cannot give me any more time

YouÅ’ve already taken too much of mine

Take the money and run
