Alba s touto skladbou:
Fly like an eagle,
Crown Royal,
When I Hit The Ground,
I was caught up in a fever
In that summer of â69
And my heart was cryinâ out for change
And I knew time was cominâ when Iâd get away.
So I moved down to that city
Where I met a friend of mine
And I must admit he tried to warn me well
With all those bad luck stories he could tell.
He said "Take the money and run,
Take the money and run
Believe it, in this town you canât trust anyone
Youâre gonna learn that lesson my son".
"Take the money and run,
Buy yourself a place in the sun
Donât be a fool, donât you trust anyone
You gotta take the money and run, take the money and run".
He was broken, he was wasted
Heâd been brought down to his knee
And his heart was crying out for truth
You could see the whole worldâs sadness in his eyes.
So I took good care of business
At least as far as I could see
I could read the signs and I knew all the lines
But so many times his voice came back to me.
"Take the money and run,
Get it at the point of a gun
Believe it, in this town you canât trust anyone
Youâre gonna learn that lesson my son".
"Take the money and run,
Buy yourself a place in the sun
Donât be a fool, donât you trust anyone
You gotta take the money and run, take the money and run".
Iâve been wanderinâ through this wasteland
Where the blind go leading the blind
And the only sound on the money-go-round
Was the million voices waiting to be found.
I could only hear a whisper
It was cominâ from the one I loved
And her heart was saying this canât be right
All my wasted days and all her lonely nights.
Take the money and run,
Get it at the point of a gun
Believe it, n this town you canât trust anyone
Youâre gonna learn that lesson my son.
Take the money and run,
Buy yourself a place in the sun
Donât be a fool, donât you trust anyone
You gotta take the money and run, take the money and run.
