Band on the Run
Pau Mccartney and Wings Lyrics

Stuck inside these four walls
I am trapped and confined, unable to escape.

Sent inside forever
I have been imprisoned and may never be free again.

Never seeing no one
I am isolated and alone, with no one to turn to.

Nice again like you
I miss the comfort and companionship of someone I care about.

Mama you, mama you
I am calling out to my mother, looking for comfort and protection.

If I ever get out of here
I am hopeful and desperate to escape my current situation.

Thought of giving it all away
I contemplate abandoning my current life and responsibilities.

To a registered charity
I may donate my possessions or money to a charitable organization.

All I need is a pint a day
I have simple needs and desires, just a small pleasure to get through each day.

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash
Something dramatic and unexpected is happening, like a storm breaking out.

As we fell into the sun
We are experiencing a surreal, dreamlike moment where anything can happen.

And the first one said to the second one there
There are others here with me, and we are communicating with each other.

I hope you're having fun
We are trying to make the best of the situation and find enjoyment in it.

Band on the run, band on the run
Our group is escaping from something or someone, running away to avoid capture.

And the jailer man and sailor Sam
Our pursuers are after us, determined to catch us.

Were searching every one
They are looking for us wherever they can, desperate to find us.

For the band on the run
We are the ones they want to capture, the people they are searching for.

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh
Someone has died, and the person responsible is feeling remorseful or guilty.

Seeing no one else had come
There is no one else around to help or support them.

And a bell was ringing in the village square
The sound of the bell suggests that something important or significant has happened or is about to happen.

For the rabbits on the run
Even small animals like rabbits can be caught up in danger or trouble, just like we are.

Yeah, the band on the run
We are still running, continuing to escape and remain free.

The band on the run
We are the people being chased, the ones causing a commotion and trying to get away.

Well, the night was falling as the desert world
The environment around us is harsh and unforgiving, with darkness descending.

Began to settle down
Things are calming down, and the danger seems to have passed for the moment.

In the town they're searching for us everywhere
Our pursuers are still looking for us, and we must remain hidden to avoid being caught.

But we never will be found
We are resolved to remain in hiding and keep running forever, never being caught or captured.

And the county judge who held a grudge
One of our pursuers has a personal vendetta against us and is particularly determined to catch us.

Will search for evermore
They will never stop pursuing us, and we must always be on the run to avoid being caught.

Band on the run, yeah
We are still running, still avoiding capture and staying free.

Band on the run, yeah
Our freedom is hard-earned and precious, and we must always be vigilant to avoid being caught.
