Boy, you've been running around too long
Now I think you're running out of time
No more jumping in and out of my bed
It's time for me to draw the line
So you think you can call me the only one
Then walk out the door
And you think you can run around having fun
And just come back for more
I think you're living in a fantasy
It's got to be them or me
So if you try it one more time
Baby don't expect me to come running back

Running back to you
Then you'll think about love All the good I gave to you
I won't come running back
Running back to you
I won't come running back
Running back to you
And I'll find someone
Somebody else to give it to
Oh oh, oh oh
I won't come running back
I won't come running
Oh oh, oh oh
I won't come running back
I won't come running

Boy, I hope you see before too late
I won't play the fool - no not this time
And I'll show you just how wrong you are
To think I just can't get you out of my mind

So you think that you can just play me off, then walk out the door
And you think that you can just run around
and come back for more
I think that you're living in a fantasu
It's got to be them or me
And if you dis me once more
Baby don't expect me to come running back

Running back to you
Then you'll think about love All the good I gave to you
I won't come running back
Running back to you
I won't come running back
Running back to you
And I'll find someone
Somebody else to give it to
Oh oh, oh oh
I won't come running back
I won't come running
Oh oh, oh oh
I won't come running back
I won't come running

You can't just dis me when you wanna
Or come and go when you wanna
I hear you playing around when you wanna
Anytime that you wanna
Or just tell me lies when you wanna
I got more than you want ah
Oh, and by the way
Oh, oh I won't come running back
I won't come running
Oh, oh I won't come running back
I won't come running

Running back to you
Then you'll think about love All the good I gave to you
I won't come running back
Running back to you
I won't come running back
Running back to you
And I'll find someone
Somebody else to give it to
Oh oh, oh oh
I won't come running back
I won't come running
Oh oh, oh oh
I won't come running back
I won't come running
