    Lyrics:
    A why did I do it, a why did I do it
    I asked myself a hundred times and then I start to cry
    It's up to my neck now I'm runnin' like a dog
    I can't remember how it started
    But it's too late to turn back the clock
    I gotta keep on, and on, and on, and on
    Oh my heart's prayin' for a heart attack
    I'm gonna collapse but I better not
    I'll get a few years for the things I've done
    I'll never see the sunrise no more what the hell
    I'm gotta keep on
    Fighting for my sanity and for family
    And for my baby, oh for my baby
    Bullshit aside yea I knew how to play the game right
    But this time I made a mistake and I'm gonna pay the price
    I'd rather be payin' to the grim reaper, than the law keeper
    I'm runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin', out of time
    Too late to waste time in haste
    I fell to my knees to pray to your God
    But your God wasn't there for me
    And so I prayed to myself for long life and stamina
    I do believe I was startin' to lose my nerve and my mind
    I heard a little voice screamin'
    If you do the crime you will send to the time
    If you do the crime you will send to the time
    If you do the crime you will send to the time

    Shit I won't bow down to that
    A belly of a priest doesn't have his name on his slip no
    I gotta keep on movin' and groovin', I gotta keep on movin' and groovin'
    I gotta keep my mind clear for the devils and the demons I will not fear
    The devils and demons I will not fear
    I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
    I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
    I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
    I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
    I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
    I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone

      That’s what I just told someone they said they were a one hit wonder I said listen again becauseProbably four or five songs on the album better than how bizarre. I don’t know about this song but like him right on and breaking my heartare great song to me and the other slow song we talked about the nights in Auckland. Maybe I’m biased I used to play over and over and over and over and I never got tired of it. The only thing I never got more playing this was probably the nucleus cassette tape back in the 80s jam on it

    By the way people. One hit wonder is just a term. Some artists struggle. They don't have even a single hit. Not everyone gets rich from rock and roll. Or pop. Only some. This man and his group had two great hits at least. That alone should be quite impressive. It is not as easy to get a hit as people think. There is just no real guarantee at all in this industry this business.
