Johnnys always runnin' around

Tryin' to find certainty

He needs all the world to confirm

That he aint lonely Mary counts the walls

Knows he tires easily Johnny thinks the world would be right

If it could buy the truth from him

Mary says

"He changes his mind more than a woman"

But she made her bed

Even when the chance was slim Johnny says, "Hes willing to learn

When he decides, hes a fool"

Johnny says' "Hell live anywhere

When he earns to time" Mary combs her hair

Says, "She should be used to it" Mary always hedges her bets

She never knows what to think

She says that he still acts

Like he is bein' discovered

Scared that hell be caught

Without a second thought runnin' around Johnny feels hes wasting his breath

Tryin' to talk sense to her

Mary says, "Hes lackin' a real

Sense of proportion" So she combs her hair

Knows he tires easily Johnnys always runnin' around

Tryin' to find certainty

He needs all the world to confirm

That he aint lonely

Mary counts the walls

Says, "She should be used to it" Johnnys always runnin' around

Runnin' around
