[Intro]
Dippy-doo, run, run, run
Dippy-doo, run, run, run
Dippy-doo, run, run, run
Dippy-doo, run, run, run
Dippy-doo, run, run, run
Dippy-doo, run, run, run
Dippy-doo, run, run, run
Dippy-doo, run, run, run

Hey, I'm getting my bag
And I'm running away now
'Cause you've been mean to me
And I've been good to you
And I've been oh so strong
Hey ya-ya-ha-ha!

Hey, I'm getting my bag
And I'm running away now
'Cause you've been mean to me
And I've been good to you
And I've been oh so strong
Hey ya-ya-ha-ha!

You don't spend the time when I'm in need
We don't love each other like we used to do
Baby I'll come back, another day
You don't do the things you used to do
Running, running, running, far away
Running, running, running, far away

Hey, I'm getting my bag (Running away)
And I'm running away now (Yes I'm running away)
'Cause you've been mean to me (Running away)
And I've been good to you (Know I'm working to stay)
And I've been oh so strong (Running away)
Hey ya-ya-ha-ha! (Yes I'm running away)

[Bridge: Instrumental]

Hey, I'm getting my bag (Running away)
And I'm running away now (Yes I'm running away)
'Cause you've been mean to me (Running away)
(You don't do the things you used to do)
And I've been good to you (Know I'm working to stay)
And I've been oh so strong (Running away)
(You don't spend the time when I'm in need)
Hey ya-ya-ha-ha! (Yes I'm running away)

Hey, I'm getting my bag (Running away)
(You don't spend the time when I'm in need)
And I'm running away now (I must go far away)
'Cause you've been mean to me
(We don't love each other like we used to do)
And I've been good to you
And I've been oh so strong
(We don't love each other like we used to do)
Hey ya-ya-ha-ha!
Hey ya-ya-ha-ha! (Running, running, running, far away)
Hey ya-ya-ha-ha!
Hey ya-ya-ha-ha! (You don't do the things you used to do)

Hey, I'm getting my bag
And I'm running away now (Running away)
(You don't spend the time when I'm in need)
'Cause you've been mean to me (Yes I'm running away)
And I've been good to you (Running away)
(We don't love each other like we used to do)
And I've been oh so strong (Know I'm working to stay)
Hey ya-ya-ha-ha! (Running away)
(Baby I'll come back, another day) (Yes I'm running away)

Can't you see I need ya?
Can't you see I need ya?
Can't you see I need ya?
Can't you see I need ya?
Can't you see I need ya?
Can't you see I need ya?
Can't you see I need ya?
Can't you see I need ya?
