Band on the Run (from “One Hand Clapping”) Songtext
von Wings

Stuck inside these four walls
Sent inside forever
Never seeing no one
Nice again
Like you, mama
You, mama
You

If I ever get out of here
Thought of giving it all away
To a registered charity
All I need is a pint a day
If I ever get outta here
(If we ever get outta here)


Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash
As we fell into the sun
And the first one said to the second one there
I hope you′re having fun
Band on the run
Band on the run
And the jailer man and sailor Sam
Were searching everyone
For the band on the run
Band on the run
For the band on the run
Band on the run
Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh
Seeing no one else had come
And a bell was ringing in the village square
For the rabbits on the run
Band on the run
Band on the run
And the jailer man and sailor Sam
Were searching everyone
For the band on the run
Band on the run

Yeah, the band on the run
The band on the run
Band on the run, yeah
Band on the run
Well, the night was falling as the desert world
Began to settle down
In the town they're searching for us everywhere
But we never will be found
Band on the run
Band on the run
And the county judge
Who held a grudge
Will search forever more
For the band on the run
The band on the run
Band on the run (yeah)
The band on the run (yeah)
