I've traveled the land with a guitar in my hand
And an eye ever open for some fun
I've made some mistakes had my share of the breaks
Seen the boys on the make and on the bum

Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh oh running man, running for home
Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh oh running man, running for home

I've seen all the frowns on the faces of the clowns
And the downs that they take just to be free
And I've seen all the girls in their pretty frocks and curls
But they don't mean a lot to me

Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh oh running man, running for home

I've been to the places in town where the faces hang 'round
Just to stare at each other
I've looned with them screamed at that moon
Behaved like a buffoon but I soon discovered

Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh oh running man, running for home
Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh oh running man, running for home
Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh oh running man, running for home

I've traveled the land, make me sticks out a hand
Seems the faces in the places misunderstand
Yes I've traveled the world, seen the playboys and girls
Heard them boys that destroys and commands

Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh oh running man, running for home
Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh oh running man, running for home
