Band on the Run Lyrics


Stuck inside these four walls
Sent inside forever
Never seeing no one nice again like you
Mama you, mama youIf I ever get out of here
Thought of giving it all away
To a registered charity
All I need is a pint a day
If I ever get out of here
If we ever get out of hereWell, the rain exploded with a mighty crash
As we fell into the sun
And the first one said to the second one there
I hope, you're having funBand on the run
Band on the run
And the jailer man and Sailor Sam
Were searching every oneFor the band on the run
For the band on the run
Band on the run
Band on the runWell, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh

Seeing no one else had come
And a bell was ringing in the village square
For the rabbits on the runBand on the run
Band on the run
And the jailer man and Sailor Sam
Were searching every oneFor the band on the run
Band on the run
Band on the run
Band on the runYeah, band on the run
The band on the runWell, the night was falling as the desert world
Began to settle down
In the town they're searching for you every where
But we never will be found, oh noBand on the run
Band on the run
And the county judge who held a grudge
Will search for evermoreFor the band on the run
For the band on the run
Band on the run
Band on the run

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Wings were the preeminent band in early 70s southeastern Nigeria, a devastated and demoralized region whose short stint as the sovereign Republic of Biafra had recently been brought to an abrupt halt by the events of the Nigerian civil war (which we will not get into here). Out of this bleak climate a plethora of rock bands emerged, mostly for the purpose of entertaining the occupying federal Nigerian troops, who were just about the only people who had money to spend on recreation.
