Gregg Allman Band Can't Keep Running with Lyrics in Description

Details

Description

Track 6 from his third studio album, “I’m No Angel” copyright 1987 Epic Records. A comeback of sorts, released five years after the ABB had disbanded for a second time, this album had a more pop-rock sound. The title song was a radio hit and its video became very popular on MTV. The album achieved Gold status in 1990. Solid writing and a laid-back feel from a band of exceptional musicians makes it one of my favorites. Second only to his next album, “Just Before The Bullets Fly”, also on my channel. Written by Michael Bolton & Martin Briley and produced by Rodney Mills. RIP Dan Toler, Bruce Waibel, David Toler & Gregory Lenoir Allman. Featuring:

Gregg Allman – Lead vocals, Hammond B-3 organ & acoustic guitars
“Dangerous” Dan Toler – Lead guitars
Tim Heding – Keyboards & background vocals
Bruce Waibel – Bass & background vocals
David "Frankie" Toler – Drums
Chaz Trippy – Percussion
Special Guests:

Don't ask me where I'm goin', I don't know
Which way the wind is blowin', I don't know
We been over this again and again
Talkin' 'bout it only drives me insane
Think I'd rather take a walk in the rain

I know (I know I can't keep runnin')
I know (I know) you've taken about enough
Well (I know I can't keep runnin')
And I know you don't want someone runnin' in and out of your life

This ain't no game we're playin', I need time, yeah
Listen here to what I'm sayin', well, I need time
Guess I saw it comin' right from the start
Now I can't bring myself to break her heart
When I do it's gonna tear me apart

I know (I know) I can't keep runnin'
I know (I know) you've taken about enough
Well, I know I can't keep runnin'
And I know you don't want someone runnin' in and out of your life

Can't escape it, gotta face it
Don't wanna leave you with your heart on the line
I can't refuse you, don't wanna lose you
Can't you see that I'm runnin' out of time

I know (I know) I can't keep runnin'
I know (I know) that you've taken about enough
Well, (I know) I can't keep runnin'
And I know you don't want someone runnin' in and out of your life

(I know) I can't keep runnin'
(I know) you've taken about enough
(I know) I can't keep runnin'
And I know you don't want someone runnin' in and out of your life
