Paul Mccartney - Man On The Run Lyrics

[Melody 1 - Verse]
Stuck inside this poor whale
Sittin' by his liver
Where is Jacques Cousteau at
Times like this?
Why you - Jonah?
You - Jonah? You?

[Instrumental Break]

[Melody 2 - Verse]
If I ever get outta here
Goin' to Nineveh today
With the message You shared with me
I'll let You have the final say
If I ever get outta here
If You let me get outta here

[Melody 3 - Verse 1]
Well, the waves exploded and they thought we'd crash
As we sailed into the storm
And the first mate said to go check in my bed
I hope I wasn't snorin'

[Chorus 1]
Man on the run, man on the run
As he came to my bed, the sailor said
"We're searchin' every bunk
For the man on the run, man on the run
Man on the run, man on the run"
[Melody 3 - Verse 2]
Well, no one would take and throw me in the tide
'Til I told them that they must
And a whale was swimming -- it had been prepared
For the rabbi on the run

[Chorus 2]
Man on the run, man on the run
And the day I ran, a whale was sent
To burp when I succumbed
As a man on the run, man on the run

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Yeah, the man on the run, man on the run
Man on the run, man on the run

[Melody 3 - Verse 3]
Well, it's nice of God to send this blessed whale
'Cause then I didn't drown
In the town of Nineveh, I said, "Repent!"
And my message was profound

[Chorus 3]
Man on the run, man on the run
And the town that was rebellious
Returned to serve the Lord
Like the man on the run, man on the run
The man on the run, hey, man on the run
Hey
