Run 'Em Off

Lyrics

Now, when the big bad wolf got in grandma's house
 And Little Red Riding Hood was scared as a mouse
 And, just like her, I'm scared through and through
 That some two-legged wolf would run away with you
 So, run 'em off
 No use to talk all day
 Run 'em off
 They're trying to get you to play
 Run 'em off
 Make 'em let us be
 If you don't run 'em off I'll swear you're cheating on me
 Now there's an iceman, milkman, and folks out of town
 They don't come to visit, they just hang around
 They act just as friendly as can be
 But I don't think they care a thing about me
 So run 'em off
 Don't talk too long
 Run 'em off
 So we can be alone
 Run 'em off
 And make 'em let us be
 If you don't run 'em off I'll swear you're cheating on me
 ♪
 No matter where you are or what you do
 Folks all a-whistle and howl at you
 When they get too close then I want to say, shoo
 'Cause it looks like they want to take a bite of you
 So run 'em off
 Don't talk too much
 Run 'em off
 You're gonna get in dutch
 Run 'em off
 And make 'em let us be
 If you don't run 'em off I'll swear you're cheating on me
 Now once I ended this song but I'll write some more
 'Cause there's a half a dozen wolfs coming up to my door
 I can tell by looking, 'cause it's plain to see
 That they're not here to make eyes at me
 Run 'em off (run 'em off)
 Don't want them hanging around
 Run 'em off (run 'em off)
 You'll be the talk of the town
 Run 'em off (run 'em off)
 And make 'em let us be
 If you don't run 'em off I'll swear you're cheating on me
