Lyrics
Hit and Run
Words and music by Alan Cartee & Jon Moore
Copyright and publishing 2003 Cartee Day Entertainment
Standing on the roadside, thumbing for a ride
You slammed on your brakes, said ?get inside?
Cruising down the PCH conversation got hot
Pulled off to the beach prove you?re not all talk
Hit and run baby, you knocked me off my feet
Hit and run, ran your love over me
Hit and run I used you, use me
Hit and run left me a love casualty
In the heat of the moment I melted right down
Passion running wild the ride of my life
It happened so fast fell madly in love with you
You cranked up the car dropped me off in Malibu
Chorus
Leaned against the car wanted to follow you home
You smiled and said ?you?re great, don?t call me I?ll call you?
My boyfriend?s a millionaire with little time for me
Don?t you understand a boy toy?s all I need?
Chorus out
