Doing 110 down Highway 5
Got the cops on my tail they won’t take me alive
57 keys stashed away in my trunk
Knowing that if they catch me well I’m gonna be sunk

So I’m runnin’, runnin’, runnin’, runnin’ from the law
I’ll get out of here faster than anything you ever saw
Yes, I’m runnin’, runnin’, runnin’, runnin’ from the law

Picked up the cops when I was passing through town
What with the dope I was just mellowing down
Didn’t take kindly to long hairs like me
Roaming the streets and just a acting so free

So I’m runnin’, runnin’, runnin’, runnin’ from the law
I’ll get out of here faster than anything you ever saw
Yes, I’m runnin’, runnin’, runnin’, runnin’ from the law

They got the road blocks up and I’m a barreling down
Can’t get through, so I should go it around
Up a small hill and around the bend
But they seen what I was doing and they’re after me again

So I’m runnin’, runnin’, runnin’, runnin’ from the law
I’ll get out of here faster than anything you ever saw
Yes, I’m runnin’, runnin’, runnin’, runnin’ from the law

I was doing 110 down Highway 5
Got the cops on my tail they won’t take me alive
57 keys stashed away in my trunk
Knowing that if they catch me well I’m gonna be sunk

So I’m runnin’, runnin’, runnin’, runnin’ from the law
I’ll get out of here faster than anything you ever saw
Yes, I’m runnin’, runnin’, runnin’, runnin’ from the law
