Keep Searchin' Lyrics
No one will understand what I've gotta do
I've gotta find a place to hide with my baby by my side
She's been hurt so much, they treat her mean and cruel
They try to keep us far apart, there's only one thing left we can do
We gotta keep searchin', searchin', find a place to hide
Searchin', searchin', she'll be by my side
If we gotta keep on the run we'll follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
Follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
Doesn't matter, doesn't matter what people might say
She's mine and I'm gonna take her anyway
Gotta keep searchin', searchin', find a place to stay
Searchin', searchin', every night and day
If we gotta keep on the run, we'll follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
Follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
We gotta keep searchin', searchin', find a place to hide
Searchin', searchin', she'll be by my side
If we gotta keep on the run we'll follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
Follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
Follow the sun-ah, Follow the sun-ah, Follow the sun
I've gotta find a place to hide with my baby by my side
She's been hurt so much, they treat her mean and cruel
They try to keep us far apart, there's only one thing left we can do
Searchin', searchin', she'll be by my side
If we gotta keep on the run we'll follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
Follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
She's mine and I'm gonna take her anyway
Searchin', searchin', every night and day
If we gotta keep on the run, we'll follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
Follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
Searchin', searchin', she'll be by my side
If we gotta keep on the run we'll follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh
Follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh

This is a weird song about what is a very unusual subject. The singer is a guy trying to rescue a girl from an abusive relationship, but "THEY treat her mean and cruel" is more like her parents are abusive rather than a husband or boyfriend. But the RESCUER is seen as the bad guy for running off with a teenage girl. This was followed up by a song called "Stranger in Town" appearing to be a PI chasing the couple down. Del Shannon was always ahead of his time.
