If there's trouble up front then i leave out the back door
Over the furniture and out across the kitchen floor
Down through the garden
Onto my neighbour's back porch

I run so fast when they're on my back
And you would run fast if they were on your back

They want to take me in
For something that i must have did
They want to take me downtown
No, they don't fool around
They're going to take me in
My fingerprint, my fingered skin
I just keep running but they just keep coming

Now i'm back in my neighbour's place
I'm happy none of my neighbours came
I'm halfway to home free
Halfway to the alleyway
I know some day they'll find me
Unless i leave them far behind me

I run so fast when they're on my back
And you would run fast if they were on your back

They want to take me in
For something that i must have did
They want to take me downtown
No, they don't fool around
They're going to take me in
My fingerprint, my fingered skin
I just keep running but they just keep coming

It's all right man, you won't win
And i don't owe you anything
It's all right man, you won't win
And i don't owe you anything
It's all right man, you won't win
And i don't owe you anything
It's all right man, you won't win
And i don't owe you anything
