Hey, here I am, I´m feelin´ good
Takin´ a ride on a hot summer night
´cause on a long, hot, hot summer night
Just don´t know why I know what I am

So let´em keep on runnin´
So let´em keep on chasin´ me

Yes, here I am, all heavy legged
Been dancin´ on, on a hot summer night
Call me a scrounger, a degenerate bum
Every day hear it over again

So let´em keep on runnin´
But let´em keep on chasin´ me

You are down and out
When you´re just being your self
We ain´t down and out
Man take a look at yourself

See a summernight sky,
I feel like runnin´
I feel like livin´ the way I do
That´s who I am,
what I´m doin´s right, it ain´t wrong
I´m livin´ this way, if livin´ is true

So let´em keep on runnin´
But let´em keep on chasin´ me

You are down and out
When you´re just being your self
We ain´t down and out
Man take a look at yourself

You´re always sayin´,
I´m sleepin´ all day
A day´s too long to sleep it away
You gotta think it over, over again
My eyes may be closed
but I´m livin´ within

Let´em keep on runnin´
For let´em keep on chasin´ me

You are down and out
When you´re just being your self
We ain´t down and out
Man take a look at yourself

You are down and out
When you´re just being your self
We ain´t down and out
Man take a look at yourself
