(Lyrics for 1st Verse Repeat)
Ben, you're always running here and there
(Here and there)
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
(Anywhere)
If you ever look behind
And don't like what you find
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go
(You've got a place to go)

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
