[English]

Well, look at here, look at here

Ah, what do we have?

Another pretty thang ready for me to grab

But little does she know that I'm a wolf in sheep's clothing

'Cause at the end of the night, it is her I'll be holding

I love you so

(That's what you'll say)

You'll tell me

Baby, baby, please don't go away

But when I play, I never stay

To every girl that I meet

Yeah, this is what I say

Run, run, runaway baby

Before I put my spell on you

You better get, get away darling

Your poor little heart will end up alone

'Cause Lord knows I'm a rolling stone

So you better run

Runaway baby

Well, let me think, let me think

Ah, what should I do?

So many eager young bodies that I'd like to pursue

Now even though they're eatin' on the palm of my hand

There's only one carrot and they all gonna share it

I love you so

(That's what you'll say)

You'll tell me

Baby, baby, please don't go away

But when I play, I never stay

To every girl that I meet

Yeah, this is what I say

Run, run, runaway baby

Before I put my spell on you

You better get, get away darling

Your poor little heart will end up alone

'Cause Lord knows I'm a rolling stone

So you better run

Runaway baby

See, I ain't tryna hurt you, baby

No, no, no, I just wanna work you, baby

Yup, yup

See, I ain't tryna hurt you, baby

No, no, no, I just wanna work you, baby

You better run

You better run

You better run

You better, you better

Run, run, runaway baby

Before I put my spell on you

You better get, get away darling

Your poor little heart will end up alone

'Cause Lord knows I'm a rolling stone

So you better run

Runaway baby
