Anne Murray Running Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What do you do when I tell you to go
And do something that you don't think is right?
What do you do when I tell you to leave
All your love behind you and go on by

[Refrain]
Take what you can when you find a new home
Somewhere where they will leave you alone

[Chorus]
See them all running? Off they go
Playing in the greener pastures in the snow

[Verse 2]
Where do you go when your country would send you
To prison because you believe in peace?
Where do you go to find some quiet
When you're stuck between more and the police? You know that you're trapped, you can't fight, you can't stay
Find yourself somewhere out of their way

[Chorus]
See them all running? Off they go
Playing in the greener pastures in the snow

[Verse 3]
It isn't easy to go away
Who needs brains to go and do what they say?
You can't decide what you think that you might
Remember that either way you'll have to fight

[Refrain]
Take what you can when you find a new home
Somewhere where they will leave you alone
