So Much Runnin'
Peace of mind it may be free
But you sure like to spend
Spend your lives up in tall buildings
Right next to heaven
Fill your glass until it's full
Till it's over flowing
The drink got drunk as the drinker got drunk
And the thinker never got a word in
So much runnin'
Just to try and get ahead
But when you die they find replacements
Before the grass grows back again
So much runnin'
Go ahead and try to sleep
You lay awake to face reality
It brings you right back to your knees
Grew up big you grew up tall
Grew up just to win
Only out to help yourself
And fighting to no end
You went out to quench that thirst
Walked right in to town
The good people there led you to water
But they didn't think you would drown
So much runnin'
Just to try and get ahead
But when you die they find replacements
Before the grass grows back again
So much runnin'
Go ahead and try to sleep
You lay awake to face reality
It brings you right back to your knees
But you sure like to spend
Spend your lives up in tall buildings
Right next to heaven
Fill your glass until it's full
Till it's over flowing
The drink got drunk as the drinker got drunk
And the thinker never got a word in
So much runnin'
Just to try and get ahead
But when you die they find replacements
Before the grass grows back again
So much runnin'
Go ahead and try to sleep
You lay awake to face reality
It brings you right back to your knees
Grew up big you grew up tall
Grew up just to win
Only out to help yourself
And fighting to no end
You went out to quench that thirst
Walked right in to town
The good people there led you to water
But they didn't think you would drown
So much runnin'
Just to try and get ahead
But when you die they find replacements
Before the grass grows back again
So much runnin'
Go ahead and try to sleep
You lay awake to face reality
It brings you right back to your knees
