Last night I had the strangest dream
I sailed away to China in a little row boat to find ya
And you said you had to get your laundry cleaned
Didn’t want no one to hold you, what does that mean?

And you said, 'Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride
Nobody’s gonna slow me down, oh no, I've got to keep on moving
Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride
I’m running and I won’t touch ground, oh no, I've got to keep on moving'

You’re on the road and now you pray it lasts
The road behind was rocky, but now you’re feeling cocky
You look at me and you see your past
Is that the reason why you’re running so fast?

And you said, 'Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride
Nobody’s gonna slow me down, oh no, I've got to keep on moving
Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride
I’m running and I won’t touch ground, oh no, I've got to keep on moving'

Never let another guy like you work me over
Never let another guy like you drag me under
If I need another guy like you, I will tell him
Never want another guy like you, have to say, hey

Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride
Nobody’s gonna slow me down, oh no, I've got to keep on moving
Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride,
I’m running and I won’t touch ground, oh no, I've got to keep on moving

Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride
Nobody’s gonna slow me down, oh no, I've got to keep on moving
Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride
I’m running and I won’t touch ground, oh no, I've got to keep on moving
