Lyrics
[verse]
Bobby had a plan and a rusty old car
Figured he'd get lucky if he drove far
Picked up a girl who was tired of the same
Together they went chasing an easy game
[chorus]
Take the money and run, baby, don't look back
Leave the whole story on the same old track
We ain't got nothing but a tank of gas
But we're gonna ride until this moment's past
[verse]
Sheriff on the radio calling out their name
Everybody talking about the get-away game
But Bobby just laughs and hits the pedal down
Kicking up the dust of another town
[chorus]
Take the money and run, baby, don't look back
Leave the whole story on the same old track
We ain't got nothing but a tank of gas
But we're gonna ride until this moment's past
[bridge]
Maybe it's foolish, maybe it's wrong
But the two of them keep singing the same song
Free as the wind on a wide open road
Carrying nothing but a lighter load
[chorus]
Take the money and run, baby, don't look back
Leave the whole story on the same old track
We ain't got nothing but a tank of gas
But we're gonna ride until this moment's past
