Run runaway, run away before it happens,
Run runaway, run out through the cellar
door,
Run runaway, leave the ones who will not
follow,
Run runaway, leave the ones who want some
more,
Run runaway, leave the ones who will not
follow,
Run runaway, leave the ones who want some
more.
(One more night and then I will be one my
way)
One more night and then I will be on the sea
One more night and then I will be leaving baby
One more night and leave me to this odyssey,
I am a working man with selfish needs and you're not
them.
Red hair and rings and all the trappings of a
harlot,
Red hair and golden bands stolen from Arabia,
Red hair and rings and you can take the chain you
gave me,
Red hair and rings, at sunrise I'm a wanderer,
Red hair and rings and you can take the chain you
gave me,
Red hair and rings, at sunrise I'm a wanderer.
(One more night and then I will be one
my way)
One more night and then I will be on the
sea
One more night and then I will be leaving baby
One more night and leave me to this odyssey,
I am a working man with selfish needs and you're
not them.
You've thrown everything at me and I am tired
I'm a weather-beaten sailor and I'm heading back
to Ithaca.
I am a working man, I am a working man,
I am a working man with selfish needs and you're
not them.
