Lyrics for They Ran

Somebody stole my lighter And where it go'd is higher I was another boy, Down in another town Armed with casino bars, Tight whores and tinseltown But i stayed Ooooooh Oh but i stayed She had a cigarette And asked if i had a light Out it came, And i gave it to her, And off into the night... His arms were thin, And off into the night, they ran. Ooooo they ran... Ooooo they ran.
