Hey, here I am I'm feelin' good Takin' a ride on hot summer night 'Cause on a long, hot, hot summer night Just don't know why I know what I am
So let 'em keep on runnin' So let 'em keep on chasin' me
Yes, here I am all heavy legged Been dancin' on, on a hot summer night Call me a scrounger, a degenerate bum Everyday hear it over again
So let 'em keep on runnin' But let 'em keep on chasin' me
You are down and out When you're just being yourself We ain't down and out Man take a look at yourself
See a summer night sky, I feel like runnin' I feel like livin' the way I do that's how I am What I'm doin' is right, it ain't wrong I'm livin' this way, if livin' is true
So let 'em keep on runnin' But let 'em keep on chasin' me
You are down and out When you're just being yourself We ain't down and out Man take a look at yourself
You're always sayin', I'm sleepin' all day A day's too long to sleep it all away You gotta think it over, over again My eyes may be closed but I'm livin' within
Let 'em keep on runnin' So let 'em keep on chasin' me
You are down and out When you're just being yourself We ain't down and out Man take a look at yourself
