This here's a story 'bout Billy Joe and Bobby Sue
Two young lovers with nothing better to do
Sit around the house, get high and watch the tube
Here's what happened when they decided to go blue
Headed down to Old El Paso
Where they ran into a big, big hassle
Billy Joe shot a man while robbing his castle
Bobby Sue took the money and run, yeah, yeah
Go on, take the money and run
Go on, take the money and run
Go on, take the money and run
Go on, take the money and run
Billy Mack is a detective down in Texas
You know he knows just exactly what the facts is
He ain't gonna let those two escape from justice
He makes his living off of the people's taxes
Billy Sue, well, she slipped away
Billy Joe got over the very next day
They got the money, hey, but they got away
Headed down south and they're still running today, so do
Go on, take the money and run
Go on, take the money and run
Go on, take the money and run
Go on, take the money and run
ย
Go on, take the money and run (Oh, oh, yeah)
Go on, take the money and run (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Go on, take the money and run (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Go on, take the money and run (Ooh, Lord)
Go on, take the money and run (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Go on, take the money and run (Yeah, yeah)
Go on, take the money and run (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Go on, take the money and run
