The Long Run Songtext
von Eagles

I used to hurry a lot, I used to worry a lot
I used to stay out ′til the break of day
Oh, that didn't get it
It was high time I quit it
And I just couldn′t carry on that way

Oh, I did some damage, I know it's true
Didn't know I was so lonely ′til I found you

You can go the distance
We′ll find out in the long run
(In the long run)
We can handle some resistance
If our love is a strong one
(Is a strong one)

People talkin' about is
They got nothin′ else to do
When it all comes down
We will still come through


In the long run
Ooh, I want to tell you
It's a long run

You know I don′t understand
Why you don't treat yourself better
Do the crazy things that you do
And all the debutantes in Houston, baby
They couldn′t hold a candle to you

Did you do it for love?
Did you do it for money?
Did you do it for spite?
Did you think you had to, honey?

Who is gonna make it?
We'll find out in the long run
(In the long run)
I know we can take it
If our love is a strong one
(Is a strong one)

Well, we're scared, but we ain′t shakin′
Kinda bent, but we ain't breakin′


In the long run
Ooh, I want to tell you
It's a long run (ay, yeah)
In the long run (ooh, yeah)
In the long run

Gonna find out, ooh fi-fi-fi-find out
It′s a long-long-long-long, long-long-long-long
Ooh, run-run-run, baby, run-run, baby
It's long, long, long, long

Ay

Thank you
We get to hear him sing it every night, we love it
Could you please say hi to Vince Melamed who′s gonna play organ with us from John David's band?
And my buddy who helped us write "James Dean" and "Best of My Love" and "Doolin-Dalton"
And this song we're about to do, J. D. Souther
It′s called "There′s a New Kid in Town"
(Ready?)
(One, two, three, four)
