Music and lyrics by Moxy Barracuda

You've been my good little girl
As friends we go so far back in time
It's safe to say I'd do anything for you
As you would for me, but times have changed
You're no longer with me, and he stays drunk
And hurts you every day
Your friends tell me how you're crying in your shame
They asked me if I'd try to talk some sense into your brain

Hey girl, they say he treats you wrong
Tell me, what's up with that?
It's gone on far too long

So what are we gonna do?
Do you wanna get out of that trap?
He's made you think you're worthless, girl
And you're imprisoned by that crap
We know you're not a simple girl
Your smile can make strong men's knees go weak
You worry I'm the tour de force
Cause I just might sweep you off your feet
And carry you away from danger
Pack your bags, let's run away

Girl, come run away with me
I'm gonna get you, girl
I'm gonna set you free

Come run away with me
From the mountains to the sea
Together we'll be free
So pack your bags to leave with me, run away

I'll carry you away from danger
Pack your bags, let's run away

Hey girl, I think I got a plan
I know what I must do
I got my mind made up
I'm coming there for you

Come run away with me
From the mountains to the sea
Our secret fantasy
Together we'll be free
I'll steal you away
Whoa oh run away

I can't believe I'm driving for you
My plan's into play
I've lost my mind, I'm doubting -- on the highway
My heart is pounding thunder -- in your driveway
All these rules and laws that I'll disobey

Girl, I crack open the door
I see him knock you down
He lifts a baseball bat
I take him to the ground

We race toward the setting sun
The top is down, the wind blows back your hair
Your smile is grinning ear to ear
This is so much fun, outrun the sirens and the fear
To Mexico, Virginia Beach, Venice, Bali, Monaco
The mountains of the moon
It doesn't matter where we hide
All that matters is that I've got you
You're safe now from all that pain
I have swept you away

Hey girl, I said I'd get you girl
I said I'd make you mine
You're mine forever, girl
Until the end of time

Come run away with me
From the mountains to the sea
Our love grows ever deep
It's our soul's serenity
Come run away with me
To the edge of history
You open up to me
Together we'll be free, you and me
Run away

about

Rare Goat Atlanta, Georgia

Formed in Fall 2004, played sets of eclectic cover choices, with Steve (guitar, voc), Johnny (bass), and Jack (drums, voc). Moxy Barracuda, longtime friend and musical associate (and solo artist in his own right), joined the group for a few numbers for a 2009 gig, and within about a year joined the band. Faced with the opportunity to start fresh, the band has focused on originals since then. ... more
