Heard it from a friend

Heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you’ve been messing around
They say you’ve got a boyfriend, you’re out late every weekend
They’re talking about you and it’s bringing me down

Well I know that neighbourhood
The talk is cheap but when the story is good
And the tales grow taller on down the line
But I’m telling you, babe, that I don’t think it’s true, babe
And even if it is keep kissing my hide

You take it on the run, baby
If that’s the way you want it, baby
Then I don’t want you around
I don’t believe it, not for a minute
You’re under the gun so you take it on the run You’re thinking of your white lies
You’re putting on your bedroom eyes
You say you’re coming home but you won’t say when
But I can feel it coming
If you leave tonight, keep running
And you need never look back again

You take it on the run, baby
If that’s the way you want it, baby
Then I don’t want you around
I don’t believe it, not for a minute
You’re under the gun so you take it on the run

Take it on the run, baby
If that’s the way you want it, baby
Then I don’t want you around
I don’t believe it, not for a minute
You’re under the gun so you take it on the run

Take it on the run, baby
If that’s the way you want it, baby
Then I don’t want you around
I don’t believe it, not for a minute
You’re under the gun so you take it on the run

Heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you’ve been messing around
