Take the money and run Lyrics

words and music by Graham Nash

Take the money and run
Like a their across a neighborÅ’s yard
Take the money and run
like a ghost out in the night
Take the money and run
`cause you found out that it wasnÅ’t hard
to take the money and run
because you were out of sight
You cannot tell me any more lies
You cannot pull the wool over my eyes
Take the money and run

Take the money and run
`cause the summer sun is sinking down
Take the money and run
`cause the four winds may not blow
Take the money and run
`cause the verdict has been handed down
Take the money and run
because thereÅ’s no place left to go
You cannot give me any more time
YouÅ’ve already taken too much of mine
Take the money and run

Take the money and run
like a thief across a neighborÅ’s yard
Take the money and run
like a dog out in the night
Take the money and run
because you found out that it wasnÅ’t hard
to take the money and run
because you were out of sight
You cannot give me any more time
YouÅ’ve already taken too much of mine
Take the money and run
