You Got Me Runnin' Lyrics

Hang on
Yeah
Ha ha ha ha ha
I don't care too much
For your backstabbin' and side steppin'
You're all sweet talk, you're all lust
You're the kind, yeah, I don't trust
I gotta get out, step aside
Bbefore you damage my pride
Let me through don't spoil my view
I gotta get away, away from you
Oh no no never thought I'd feel so low
You got me runnin'
You got me runnin'
I ain't gonna hide
And yesterday everything seemed okay
Yeah you better run and hide away
Oh you better hide
You're out, out on the street
But I'm back on my feet
I might lose it, so get wise
Stop your usin' and your lies
Oh my friend don't stick around
Your time is up, the chips are down
Let me through don't spoil my view
I gotta get away, away from you
Oh no no never thought I'd feel so low
You got me runnin'
You got me runnin'
I ain't gonna hide
And yesterday everything seemed okay
Yeah you better run and hide away
Oh you better hide
You got me runnin'
(You got me runnin')
You got me runnin'
(You got me runnin')
You got me runnin'
(You got me runnin')
You got me runnin', runnin', runnin'
C'mon
Whoah
Oh oh oh
Oh yeah
Runnin' and runnin'
Runnin'
Oh
Watch me run
Runnin', runnin', runnin'
Oh no no never thought I'd feel so low
You got me runnin'
You got me runnin'
I ain't gonna hide
And yesterday everything seemed okay
Yeah you better run and hide away
Oh you better hide
You got me runnin'
(You got me runnin')
You got me runnin'
(You got me runnin')
You got me runnin'
(You got me runnin')
You got me runnin'
(You got me runnin')
I'm gettin' out
(You got me runnin')
You can't say no no more
(You got me runnin')
Get out the door
(You got me runnin')
You got me runnin'

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

One of the best off the High and Dry Record! I think the lyric for "I might lose it" should be "I'm not a loser" I suspect it about someone running and running
