Foghat - Don't run me down lyrics

rate me

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 (3x)

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 (3x)

my body's shakin and my heart is achin', don't run me down

don't run me down (3x)

my body's shakin and my heart is achin', don't run me down (2x)

(don't run me down) (8x)

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
