[Verse 1]
Got a crazy, restless feeling
I cannot be consoled
Got an itchy urge to up and run
I think I've lost control
You do something to me
Something that I really can't explain
I ain't felt like this since I was a kid
And I never thought I'd feel this much again

[Chorus]
I've got that runaway feeling
Like to grab you up and just run off
Footloose and fancy free
Yeah, that thought's appealing
That runaway feeling's let my feelings
Run away with me

[Verse 2]
I get all swimmy-headed every time I look at you
Though love has blurred my vision, I still enjoy the view
Like Elvis and his hound dog
In a deep fog, I keep a-running after you
I thought I'd been in love before
But before doesn't matter anymore, not to me

[Chorus]
I've got that runaway feeling
Like to grab you up and just run off
Footloose and fancy free
Yeah, that thought's appealing
That runaway feeling's let my feelings
Run away with me

[Bridge]
Ah, run with it, boys

[Chorus]
I've got that runaway feeling
Like to grab you up and just run off
Footloose and fancy free
Yeah, that thought's appealing
That runaway feeling's let my feelings
Run away with me

[Outro]
I've got that runaway feeling (runaway)
Runaway feeling (runaway)
Runaway feeling (runaway)
Runaway feeling (runaway)
Won't you run away with me?
Runaway feeling (runaway)
Runaway feeling (runaway)
Runaway feeling (runaway)
Won't you run away with me?

Runaway feeling
Runaway feeling

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
