Take It And Run Lyrics - The Warrior's Code - Dropkick Murphys

Maureen's out on the street again 

Didn't get the job 'cause she missed her appointment 

She don't know if the kids are fed 

They've got holes in their shoes and the cold's coming quick now 

The power's off the bills ain't paid gotta jump the box from the neighbor's apartment 

Space heaters and welfare checks are as good as it gets in this land of hard lessons 

Don't talk to me if you ain't got the answers I need 

Yeah I've got problems 

Can't you see I'm trying to solve them? 

Broke it off with the man in her life finally got the courage to pack up and leave now 

She keeps saying she'll be all right but in her mind does she really believe it 

Long lines on Piedmont Street but if you hang around you might get a bed there 

Turn around and don't look back you've got a piece of your life so take it and run now 

The sun is shining on you 

Maureen may all your dreams come true 

Broke it off with the man in her life you know she ain't got nothing better 

Yeah you know she don't but she keeps on believing 

The sun is shining on you 

Maureen may all your dreams come true
