Take The Money And Run Lyrics
[00:12.02] This here's a story about Billy Joe and Bobbie Sue
[00:16.66] Two young lovers with nothin' better to do
[00:21.79] Than sit around the house, get high, and watch the tube
[00:26.87] And here's what happened when they decided to cut loose
[00:31.70] They headed down to, ooh, old El Paso
[00:36.58] That's where they ran into a great big hassle
[00:41.45] Billy Joe shot a man while robbing his castle
[00:46.58] Bobbie Sue took the money and run
[00:51.24] Go on, take the money and run
[00:56.12] Go on, take the money and run
[01:01.03] Go on, take the money and run
[01:05.78] Go on, take the money and run
[01:10.67] Billy Mack is a detective down in Texas
[01:15.44] You know he knows just exactly what the facts is
[01:20.36] He ain't gonna let those two escape justice
[01:25.35] He makes his livin' off of the people's taxes
[01:30.25] Bobbie Sue, whoa-whoa, she slipped away
[01:35.01] Billy Joe caught up to her the very next day
[01:39.67] They got the money, hey, you know they got away
[01:44.51] They headed down south and they're still runnin' today singin'
[01:49.37] Go on, take the money and run
[01:54.23] Go on, take the money and run
