There ain’t no rule ‘bout how to love someone
Scare a fool and he is bound to run
Tie down my heart, I’ll break it free
You just can’t do that to someone like me

You got me runnin’ – just like a rabbit from a gun

I know you mean well, but I’m skittish too
Give me a chance, I’m gonna run from you
Tie down my heart, I’ll break away
But I’ll live to love again another day

You got me runnin’ – just like a rabbit from a gun

I know you argue, but I speak the truth
Give me a chance, I’ll provide the proof
When a woman tries to overpower her man
She lose a bird-in-the bush and a bird-in-her-hand

You got me runnin’ – just like a rabbit from a gun
