Ooh, ooh.
This is a story 'bout Billy Joe and Bobby Sue,
two young lovers with nothin' better to do

than sit around the house,
get high and watch the tube.

And here's what happened
when they decided to cut loose.

They headed down to old El Paso;
that's where they ran into a great big hassle.

Billy Joe shot a man while robbin' his castle;
Bobby Sue took the money and ran.

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 justice.
He makes his livin' off of the people's taxes.

Bobby Sue, woh, woh, she slipped away;
Billy Joe caught up to her the very next day.

They got the money, hey,
you know, they got away.

They headed down South
and they're still runnin' today, singin':

Go on, take the money and run.
Go on, take the money and run.

Go on, take the money and run, aooh, Lord.
Go on, take the money and run.

Yeah, yeah, go on, take the money and run,
yeah, yeah.
Go on, take the money and run, aooh, Lord.

Go on, take the money and run, yeah, yeah.
Go on, take the money and run, aooh, Lord.
