Heard it from a friend who   Heard it from a friend who   Heard it from another you been messin’ around   They say you got a boy friend   You’re out late every weekend   They’re talkin’ about you and it’s bringin’ me down      But I know the neighborhood   And talk is cheap when the story is good   And the tales grow taller on down the line   But I’m telling you, babe   That I don’t think it’s true, babe   And even if it is keep this in mind      Chorus:   You take it on the run baby   If that’s the way you want it baby   Then I don’t want you around   I don’t believe it   Not for a minute   You’re under the gun so you take it on the run      You’re thinking up your white lies   You’re putting on your bedroom eyes   You say you’re coming home but you won’t say when   But I can feel it coming   If you leave tonight keep running   And you need never look back again      Chorus x3      Heard it from a friend who   Heard it from a friend who   Heard it from another you been messin’ around
