[Verse]
Well now, I've been (I've been) sitting here
Planning my escape
My wife's (my wife) comin' with a file in a cake (yeah)
And I've been (I've been) very thorough
I won't make no mistake
Well I've even got my Eldorado parked outside the gate

Red Green, you know she loved
But they charged him with her crime
And I know, they'll never find him
So long and goodbye

[Chorus]
Run, run, run, run, run
Now run Mr. Green (oh mercy)
Run, run, run, run, run
Now run Mr. Green
You known you better
Run, run, run, run, run
Now run Mr. Green
You know now
Run, run, run, run, run
Now run Mr. Green

[Verse]
I know (I know), ooh, you can't run slow now
You've got to (got to) move baby
Head off the road
Well I said there'll be no (be no) hope now
The lighting's on the road, oh baby
Cause I won't say that you've been
That there ain't gonna no home

[Chorus]

Run, run, run, run, run
Run Mr. Green
Run, run, run, run, run
Run Mr. Green (yes you better)
Run, run, run, run, run
Run Mr. Green
Run, run, run, run, run
Run Mr. Green (you better)
Run, run, run, run, run
Run Mr. Green
Run, run, run, run, run
Run Mr. Green
Don't chase me down
Run Mr. Green

You better run, you better run
You better run, you better run
You better run, you better run
You better run, you better run
You better run, you better run
You better run...
You better run...
You better run...
