Lyrics Paul Westerberg

Paul Westerberg

Fugitive Kind

I've been bought, it's quite a scandal, just got out alive

I gave 'em all that they could handle then I took a dive

So, take a chair and make it snappy, tryin' to lose these jerks

Say a prayer and make it simple, it's the only kind that works

On the outskirts of the sundown, I feel like Billy the Kid

Don't know where I'll go or run, now like I ever did

Is this where I belong

Hurry up, quick and you can come along

We ain't got time for you to grab your stuff

What's flowin' through our veins is good enough

I'm the fugitive kind, you better make up your mind, I can't wait

You can run, run, run, run away with me but never from your fate

You can run, run, run, run away from me but never from your fate

I've got strange and grandiose ideas

I never know or care what day it is

We can write down our dreams and hide 'em under the bed

And walk down the street with light bulbs on our head

I'm the fugitive kind, you better make up your mind, I can't wait

You can run, run, run, run away with me but never from your fate

You can run, run, run, run away from me but never from your fate

I stood alone on that stage

Just like a stone on a grave

You could be my lover, I'd make you laugh

Or just another epitaph

I'm a bad idea whose time is come

And I'll never forget where I started from

I'm the fugitive kind, you better make up your mind, I can't wait

You can run, run, run, run away with me but never from your fate

You can run, run, run, run away from me but never from your fate

You can run, run, run, run away from me but never from your fate

You can run, run, run, you can run, run, run

You can run, run, run, you can run, run, run
