Where Are We Runnin'?

(INTRO)

1ST VERSE: fast lane
high speed
on the grind
24/7
no time
always runnin' here and there
chasin' the money

BRIDGE: so much jibber jabber's
cloggin' up our soul

CHORUS: where are we runnin'
we need some time to clear our heads
where are we runnin'
keep on working 'til we're dead
where are we runnin'
oo wee oo wee oo
where are we runnin' now

2ND VERSE: in style
profile
got to buy
the new Cavalli
keep the skin tight
and the booty in the air
don't stop the party

BRIDGE: the road is paved but narrow
I hope we all get home

CHORUS: where are we runnin'
we need some time to clear our heads
where are we runnin'
keep on working 'til we're dead
where are we runnin'
oo wee oo wee oo
where are we runnin' now

BREAK: where you runnin' girl
I see you up there
oh you up on that stage
you up there
I saw you

(GUITAR SOLO)

CHORUS: where are we runnin'
