1
I don't care to say what
2
I failed to recognize
3
Every single day from the poker to the prize
4
Running out of Springfield
5
I worked for the Capitol Air, in the bags
6
Found a woman there who said
7
She had a mind to make
8
Me a messenger man
9
If my father took his life
10
For the national plan, I don't care
11
I'm not about to stick my grave with an
12
Apron and a bucket of plans, never ever
13
I can take the pillow cases
14
Off the yellow pillows
15
Make a property line from the bed
16
In the living room, the living room
17
The morning papers made the most
18
Out of nothing at all
19
So we took the room
20
With a view of the runaway
21
I took off my clothes
22
And she took it for a holiday
23
I was taken for all the things
24
That I never had before
25
Running out of Springfield
26
She left me with a note saying:
27
"Bobby, don't look back"
28
And if my wife took a bicycle ride
29
With a knife in her hand
30
I saw it coming
31
All the shadflies run at once
32
With a trumpet or a train
33
Oh, I'm running from it
34
Wait a minute, wait a minute
35
Give a minute, lady
36
I can explain the aftershave
37
Wait a minute, wait a minute
38
Give a minute
39
Bobby got a shadfly
40
Caught in his hair
41
(Yes, he does)
