MAKE LOVE ON THE RUN

Verse 1

On a desert highway, forty miles from home

Met a dark haired stranger, stopped my car to say hello

She looked so gorgeous in her faded jeans

One of those angels from a fashion magazine

I don’t know just how it all got started

All I know is she left me broken hearted

Chorus

One cup of coffee, two pints to go

We drank it slowly as we made love to the radio

We talked for hours, ‘til the morning sun

She told me baby that she makes love on the run

Verse 2

Over four years later, it was like a dream

Saw the dark haired stranger in a bar in New Orleans

Felt so nervous as she walked on by

She grabbed by shoulder and winked as she caught my eye

I don’t know just why she’d ever do this

Won’t somebody try to help me make it through this

One cup of coffee, two pints to go

We drank it slowly as we made love to the radio

We talked for hours, ‘til the morning sun

She told me baby that she makes love on the run

Makes love on the run…….oh yea

Instrumental

Verse 3

Now that I’m much older, raised a family

All the kids are gone now, but I still have memories

Of the desert highway, and those faded jeans

And the chance encounter in a bar in New Orleans

Instrumental turn (transition)

Bridge

Well that’s my story for all to see

And the dark haired stranger, she wakes up next to me…, with

One cup of coffee, two pints to go

We drink it slowly as we make love to the radio

We talk for hours, ‘til the morning sun

She tells me baby we can make love on the run

Make love on the run…..

Make love on the run
