@[Abe:26769] E. Boomer wanted to add this correction: The narrative is NOT in this song, but can be heard in Track 10 of the same album in,"We Do What We Can". When heard together, the meaning of this song comes out more. |

@[Abe:26768] E. Boomer mixed together lyrics from "We Do What We Can" (10th track on the same album) with "Run Baby Run". The dates, people, and events mentioned are from both songs combined...not just Run Baby Run. You must hear, We Do What We Can to draw more meaning from this song. |

There is almost a rap narrative in the original extended play version (seldom heard on the radio) which mentions politics, the Vietnam War draft, and JFK's assassination. It really brings the meaning of the song together. However, as it makes this otherwise "soft-rock" song edgier and definitely politicized, it is usually not heard on the radio. That narrative is not included in the lyrics contained on this site. |

Sheryl Crow's SEMI-autobiographical song written with creative license, I would say. Growing up as a late-boomer surrounded by history unfolding and a keen awareness by family members...I can relate. The subject of the song was born on 11/22 while Sheryl was born on 2/11. Thinking about dates and events growing up, Kennedy and Huxley died on that same day and both are mentioned in the song, Sheryl created quite a period piece in this one. Anyone doing a history project about the 1960s for school might well want to include this as a soundtrack. |
