take it on the run

80lerden hi infidelity albümünden bir diğer reo speedwagon eseri. Öncelikle "take it on the run" bir şeylerden kaçınmak anlamına geliyormuş. Burada da sorulardan diyebiliriz sanırım. Kahramanımız kız arkadaşına başkalarıyla olduğunu duydum ama inanmadım diye sözler yöneltiyor burada. Müzikal anlamda da kulaklarımıza şölen uyguluyorlar adeta. Sözleri şu şekilde;

Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you've been messin' around.

They say you've got a boyfriend
You're out late every weekend
They're talkin' about you and it's bringing me down.
But I know the neighborhood
And talk is cheap when the story is good
And the tales grow taller on down the Iine.

But I'm tellin' you babe
That I don't think it's true babe
And even if it is
keep this in mind

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 thinkin' up your white lies
You're puttin' on your bedroom eyes
You say you're comin' home
but you won't say when.
But I can feel it comin
if you leave tonight keep runnin
And you need never look back again.

Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you've been messin' around.
