Run Baby Run

Run Baby Run - Studio 99

She was born in November

1963 the day Aldous Huxley died

And her mama believed me that every man could be free

So her mama got high high high and

Her Daddy marched on Birmingham

Singing mighty protest songs and

He pictured all the places

Where he knew that she'd belong

But he failed and taught her young

The only thing she'd need to carry on

He taught her how to

Run baby run baby run baby

Run baby run

So run baby run baby

Run baby run baby run

Past the arms of the familiar and

Their talk of better days

To the comfort of the strangers slipping out before they say

So long baby loves to run

She counts out all her money in the taxi

On the way to meet her plane

In stares hopeful out the window

At the workers fighting through the pouring rain

And she's searching through the stations

For an unfamiliar song

And she's think of all the places where

She knows she still belongs

She smiles the secret smile and sure

She knows exactly how to carry on

So run baby run baby

Run baby run baby run

So run baby run baby

Run baby run baby run

From their old familiar faces and their old familiar ways

To the comfort of the strangers and

Slipping out before they say

So long and baby loves to run

And she's searching through the

Stations for an unfamiliar song

And she pictures all the places

Where she knows she still belongs

And she smiles the secret smile

Because she knows exactly how

To carry on

So run baby run baby

Run baby run baby run

So run baby run baby

Run baby run baby run

So run baby run baby

Run baby run baby run
