She Sure Did Like To Run

She made her exit a month ago tomorrow

Called up her mama and asked if she could borrow

Enough money to leave for awhile

Mama said you always were impulsive child

She bought a ticket at the Greyhound station

Said she needed a permanent vacation

Ran out of money by Santa Fe

Hitchhiked the rest of the way

And she blew into town with a runaway heart

Like a Santa Ana blowin' down Ocean Boulevard

Everybody said she was a restless one

Never knew where she was going but she sure did like to run

She took a job with a bucket and a wet mop

Saved her pay checks and bought an old rag top

She'd crank it up and let her hair down

They'd hear her coming for miles around

And she blew into town with a runaway heart

Like a Santa Ana blowin' down Ocean Boulevard

Everybody said she was a restless one

Never knew where she was going but she sure did like to run

Last time I saw her she was letting the top down

She wouldn't tell me but I think she was south bound

She waved goodbye and looked back and smiled

And took off after the call of the wild

And she blew out of town with a runaway heart

Like a Santa Ana blowin' down Ocean Boulevard

Everybody said she was a restless woman

Never knew where she was going

She never knew where she was going

Never knew where she was going

But she sure did like to run
