Raphael Saadiq - 100 Yard Dash Lyrics

Girl
I tried to run but couldn't get too far
My heart is pumpin' but still, I'm runnin' in place
No matter how hard I try to get your touch
When you're away too long, oh, girl it's too much
But every time I run, I need it
Oh, so bad

But I'm running scared, my heart's beatin' so fast
I heard that you could make a man change his plan (can make him change his plans)
That's why I'm running fast, I'm running the hundred yard dash

I ran for the hills
Ooh, girl, there you were
How you appeared, you see, I'll never know
I told the bartender to pour me a double glass
Then light me a smoke, so I can sing some jazz

Now here come them legs, here come those eyes
And neither one I can never deny
I try to be smooth as I can
But I guess I need another plan

I need your lovin' baby, oh, so bad
But I'm runnin' scared, my heart's beatin' so fast
I heard that you could make a man change his plan (can make him change his plans)
That's why I'm running fast, I'm runnin' the hundred yard dash

Your love gets stronger
And it feels like everyday is getting longer
I feel your love like a monkey on my back
Girl, your heart is so big, see, I can feel the attack

Oh, oh, I need some lovin'
I, I want your lovin'
I gotta have your lovin'
I, I need to, got to, got to have your lovin'
