Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Running Man's Bible Lyrics

You’re with me tonight on this dark highway
We’ve run it together so many times
We’ve run it for money, we’ve run it for music
We’ve run it to pay for our innocent crimes

I took on my father and I’m still walkin’
Took on all comers in some shape or form
And I see with the eyes of somethin’ wounded
Somethin’ still standing after the storm

Here’s one to glory and survival
And stayin’ alive, it’s the running man’s bible, yeah

I been next in line, I been next to nothin’
Been next to bystanders who shoulda said somethin’
It was not in my vision, it was not in my mind
To return from a mission, a man left behind

Here’s one to glory and survival And stayin’ alive, it’s the running man’s bible, yeah

I don’t speak of the times I’ve nearly died
I don’t speak of outlastin’ those who are gone
Or the things I’ve done I care not to remember
Or the desperate measures that might have been wrong

Honey here’s one to glory, here’s to bad weather
And all the hard things we’ve been through together

Here’s one to glory and survival
And stayin’ alive, it’s the running man’s bible

Here’s one to glory and survival
And stayin’ alive, it’s the runnin’ man’s bible, yeah
