Run It Lyrics by The Replacements

Hootenanny

1983

Red light, red light, run it
Red light, red light, run it
Lyndale, Garfield
Back up now 'cept
Engine stopped runnin'

There ain't nobody watchin' -- run it
There ain't nobody watchin' -- run it
Lyndale, Garfield
Back up now 'cept
Engine stopped runnin'

Ain't no truth -- run it
Ain't no good -- run it

Lyndale, Garfield
Back up now 'cept
Engine stopped runnin'

Run it
Run, run, run it
