Lyrics

If I have to run

I'm not runnin' out on you

If I have to shake a little

Sand out of my shoes

I'm runnin' from the law

Or they'll put me inside

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time to hide

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time to hide

I've been on the run

Since the Good Lord knows when

And the day I die

I'll still be runnin' then

Runnin' from the days

When I would lay me down and cry

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time to hide

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time to hide

Will I love you tomorrow?

Yes, I will, my love

Yes, I will, my love

Will I beg, steal or borrow?

Yes, I will, my love

Yes, I will, my love

To spend a little time

Happy to be by your side

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time to hide

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time to hide

If I have to run

I'm not runnin' out on you

If I have to shake a little

Sand out of my shoes

I'm runnin' from the law

Or they'll put me inside

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time to hide

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time to hide

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time

Baby, won't you let me have

A little time to hide

With 25 albums of pop music, 5 of classical – a total of around 500 songs – released over the course of more than half a century, Paul McCartney's career, on his own and with Wings, boasts an incredible catalogue that's always striving to free itself from the shadow of The Beatles. The stories behind the songs, demos and studio recordings, unreleased tracks, recording dates, musicians, live performances and tours, covers, events: Music Is Ideas Volume 1 traces McCartney's post-Beatles output from 1970 to 1989 in the form of 346 song sheets, filled with details of the recordings and stories behind the sessions. Accompanied by photos, and drawing on interviews and contemporary reviews, this reference book draws the portrait of a musical craftsman who has elevated popular song to an art-form.
