She was born in November 1963,
the day Alice Hux ley died
that every man could be free
So her mama got high, high, high
She's singing mighty potent songs
And he pictured all the places
Where he knew that she belonged
But he failed and taught her young
The only thing she'd need to carry on
He taught her how to run baby, run baby,
So run, baby, run, baby, run,
Past the arms of the familiar
And their talk of better days
To the comfort of the strangers
They've been out before they say so
She counts out all her money
In a taxi on the way to meet her play
Who stares hopeful out the window
at the workers fighting through
And she's searching through the stations
And she's thinking about the places
that she knows she still belongs
She smiles a secret smile
So run baby, run baby, run baby,
So run, baby, run, baby, run,
From their old familiar faces
and their old familiar ways
To the comfort of a stranger's home
It's been an hour before they say so long
And she's searching through the stations
And she pictures all the places
she knows she still belongs
And she smiles the secret smile
because she knows exactly how to carry on
So run baby, run baby, run baby,
let's run baby run baby run
So run, baby, run, baby, run,
So run, baby, run, baby, run ,
So run, baby, run, baby, run,
