I've been waiting for my lady
One hour - she finally came
She came walking by my table
And I'm thinking
What's this fox's game
To be honest, I was ready
To play that white witch's game
And I knew that she was ready
To cut loose on the town and meet somebody new for a change

When you're running all night with the lion...
Running all night with the lion
Running all night with the lion...
Running all night with the lion

I may not recall exactly
How I got her to sit down
She was sitting at my table
And I'm making out like a clown
Oh, she'll make me very happy
When she showed her fallen again
And I knew that she was ready
To cut loose on the town and meet
Somebody new for a change

When you're running all night with the lion...
Running all night with the lion
Running all night with the lion...
Running all night with the lion
[Instrumental Break]

Rock 'n' rollin' ladies
Good life to the games you can't win
We'll drink wine at my table
And we'll talk till it's time to go in
This could be something heavy
If only you'd show me a sign
When something says you're ready
To cut loose on the town and meet somebody new for a change

When you're running all night with the lion...
Running all night with the lion
Running all night with the lion...
Running all night with the lion

Running all night with the lion...
Running all night with the lion
Running all night with the lion...
Running all night with the lion
Running all night with the lion...
Running all night with the lion
