Im Not Running Anymore

John Mellencamp
Holly told me, 'You better give me a child'
I said, 'Holly, theres no way We dont even like each other all that much We couldnt make it one more day'
She said, 'You better look out, buster The next time you see me youre gonna pay'
I said, 'Holly, Im not running anymore But Im on my way'
Im on my way
Im on my way
Im on my way
But Im not running anymore
Well I got two circus clowns here who like to fight
They got one black eye and a bloody nose
They are the hoodlums of my third wife
Whatever I say they will oppose
I try to teach those clowns something
Like how to make it day to day
I say, 'Hey, you kids, Im not running anymore But Im on my way'
Im on my way
Im on my way
Im on my way
And Im not running anymore
Well I look in the mirror - what the hell happened to me?
Whatever I had has gone away
Im not the young kid that
I used to be
So I push the hair back out of my face
Thats O.K.,
I knew this would happen
But I was hopin not today
Hey Baby,
Im not running anymore
But Im on my way
Im on my way
Im on my way
Im on my way
And Im not running anymore
Im on my way
Im on my way
Im on my way
And Im not running anymore
For sure!
