[Tom Petty, The Heartbreakers - Running Man's Bible lyrics]
We've run it together so many times
We've run it for money
We've run it for music
We've run it to pay for our innocent crimes
I took on my father and I'm still walking
Took on all comers in some shape or form
And I see with the eyes of something wounded
Something still standing after the storm
Here's one to glory and survival
And staying alive
It's the running man's bible
I been next in line, I been next to nothing
Been next to bystanders who
Should have said something
It was not in my vision
It was not in my mind
To return from a mission a man left behind
Here's one to glory and survival
And staying alive
It's the running man's bible
I don't speak of the times I've nearly died
I don't speak of outlasting
Those who are gone or the things I've done I
Care not to remember
Or the desperate measures that
Might have been wrong
Honey, here's one to glory
Here's to bad weather
And all the hard things
We've been through together
Here's to the golden rule and survival
And to staying alive
It's the running man's bible
Here's one to glory and survival
And staying alive
It's the running man's bible
