Jack was a reckless, rebel boy from Tennessee |
|
In and out of trouble with the law |
|
Still, something in his eyes looked like where she wanted to be |
|
And he had never seen something so beautiful |
|
Jenny's daddy wore a sheriff's badge |
|
And one night Jack asked him for her hand |
|
He said, "Get real, son. She's got bigger plans |
|
And you're crazy, boy, if you think you're that man" |
|
Jack said, Jenny, will you run? Jenny, will you run away with me? |
|
Hold me, girl, let's get away and chase that open road |
|
Follow what you feel, remember what is real, it's you and me |
|
No one can take this love away, please, tell me that you'll go |
|
Jenny, will you run? |
|
She wrote a note then tip-toed across the floor |
|
They were headed straight for Vegas lights |
|
Oh, but daddies just don't sleep through slowly creaking doors |
|
And he yelled out, "Don't you dare back out that drive!" |
|
Jack said, Jenny, will you run? Jenny, will you run away with me? |
|
Hold me, girl, let's get away and chase that open road |
|
Follow what you feel, remember what is real, it's you and me |
|
No one can take this love away, please, tell me that you'll go |
|
Jenny, will you run? |
|
Rear-view blue and red, highway up ahead |
|
(Jenny's heart was pounding, oh, oh she loves him) |
|
If you've got any doubts, baby, I'll pull over now |
|
But I'm ready to slam this pedal through the ground |
|
Come on, Jenny, will you run? Jenny, will you run away with me? |
|
Hold me, girl, let's get away and chase that open road |
|
Follow what you feel, remember what is real, it's you and me |
|
No one can take this love away, just tell me that you'll go |
|
Jenny, will you run? |
|
Oh, Jenny, will you run? |
|
(Jenny run, Jenny run away) |
