Off And Running
Lesley Gore
No matter what you do, no matter what you say
I've had enough of you; I'm gonna break way
I'm off & I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here & I want out
I'd rather get my kicks; I'd rather have me fun
Ain't gonna take your tricks; my life has just begun
Well baby, I'm off & I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here & I want out
Took my love for granted & you pushed your luck too far
Well, you play things underhanded & now I know just what you are
So baby, I'm off & I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here & I want out, yeah
(instrumental)
No matter what you do, oh no matter what you say
I've had enough of you; I'm gonna break way
Oh baby I'm off & I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here & I want out
(repeat & fade):
Yes I am off & I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here & I want out
