Lyrics for 100 Yard Dash
Girl, I tried to run but couldn't get too far My heart is pumpin' but still I'm runnin' in place No matter how hard I try to get your touch When you're away too long, oh girl, it's too much But every time I run, I need you oh so bad But I'm running scared, my heart is beatin' so fast I heard that you could make a man change his plan That's why I'm running fast, I'm running the 100-yard dash I ran for the hills and girl there you were How you appear, you see I never know I told the bartender to pour me a double glass Then light me a smoke, so I can sing some jazz Now here come them legs, here come those eyes And neither one I can never deny I try to be smooth as I can But I guess I need another plan I need you lovin' baby, oh so bad Girl, I'm runnin' scared, my heart's beatin' so fast I heard that you could make a man change his plan That's why I'm running fast, I'm runnin' the 100-yard dash Your love gets stronger And it feels like every day is getting longer I feel your love like a monkey on my back Girl, your heart is so big, see I can feel the attack Oh, oh, I need some lovin' I, I want your lovin' I can have your lovin' I need to, got to, got to have your lovin'
