Run for Your Life - Eric Burdon

Tension in the city

Danger in the air

I can hear the footsteps of people running scared

Somebody is watching me

I can feel it in my bones

And now the night is calling me

Calling me back home

Run for your life

Run to survive

The streets are alive

So you'd better run for your life

Another broken window

Reflects another fight

Another confrontation is being planned tonight

Look I don't wanna be no hero

I don't wanna be no hero

I just wanna stay alive

Can't we talk this over

Cause I don't want to fight

I don't want to fight

Run for your life

Run to survive

The streets are alive

So you'd better run for your life

Keep on runnin keep on runnin'

'Cause they keep on comin' at you

Hatches ratches sticks and stones

They don't care if you're young or old

Replicants handguns shotguns and rubberbullets

Then they hit you with the TV reports of the young rest

Of the downtrodden

And the opressed

Meanwhile you're obsessed

But the fact is it's you everyody is talking about

Talking about talking about talking about

Run for your life

Run to survive

The streets are alive

So you'd better run for your life

Run for your life

Run to survive

The streets are alive

So you'd better run for your life

Got to keep on running

Cause the people keep on comin'

And they're comin' after you and me

Got to keep on movlng

'Cause the shadows keep on moving

And they're movin' in on you and me

I'm looking for direction

And I'm looking for protection

And I want to escape the knife

So you'd better run for your life

Run for your life

Run to survive

The streets are alive

So you'd better run for your life

Run for your life

Run to survive
