No one will understand what I've gotta do,
I've gotta find a place to hide with my baby by my side,
She's been hurt so much, they treat her mean and cruel,
They try to keep us far apart, there's only one thing left we can do.

We gotta keep searchin', searchin', find a place to hide,
Searchin', searchin', she'll be by my side,
If we gotta keep on the run we'll follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh,
Follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh.

Doesn't matter, doesn't matter what people might say,
She's mine and I'm gonna take her anyway.

Gotta keep searchin', searchin', find a place to stay,
Searchin', searchin', every night and day,
If we gotta keep on the run, we'll follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh,
Follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh.

We gotta keep searchin', searchin', find a place to hide,
Searchin', searchin', she'll be by my side,
If we gotta keep on the run we'll follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh,
Follow the sun-ah, wee-ooh.

Follow the sun-ah, Follow the sun-ah, Follow the sun.
