Lyrics

Sing Along Now!

IMG_0275_edited_edited_edited.jpg

Let's have a race down to the corner
You'll never catch me you won't succeed
These colored stripes give sneaker power
And shift my shoes to super speed

CHORUS:

Oh no you can't catch me I wear my sneakers
And when I run I run I run I really fly
Oh no you can't catch me I wear my sneakers
And when I run I run I run I really fly

My sneakers whirrin’…My eyes were blurrin'
I chased a train that passed me by
My heels were smokin' in locomotion
left that train way back behind

(CHORUS)

Run Run Run Run Run along with me
Huffin' huffin' puffin' goin' faster faster .... Wheee
Run Run Run Run Run along with me
Huffin' huffin' puffin' goin' faster faster .... Wheee
At night in bed I hear those monsters

At night in bed I hear those monsters
In my closet under the bed
But that's okay I wear my sneakers
They try to grab me but then I said

(CHORUS)

I run in mud…I run through water
I run on hills and on and on
I love to wear my striped sneakers
I rev my treads (Everyone rev your treads)
Then I'm long gone

(CHORUS)

Run Run Run Run Run along with me
Huffin' huffin' puffin' goin' faster faster .... Wheee
Run Run Run Run Run along with me
Huffin' huffin' puffin' goin' faster faster.... Wheee
