Fast lane High speed On the grind 24/7 No time, always runnin' here and there Chasin' the money So much jibber-jabber's cloggin' up our soul (Where are we runnin'?) We need some time to clear our head (Where are we runnin'?) Keep on workin' 'til we're dead (Where are we runnin'?) Ooh-wee-ooh-wee-ooh Where are we runnin' now? In style Profile Got to buy The new Cavalli Keep the skin tight and the booty in the air Don't stop the party The road is paved but narrow I hope we all get home (Where are we runnin'?) We need some time to clear our head (Where are we runnin'?) Keep on workin' 'til we're dead (Where are we runnin'?) Ooh-wee-ooh-wee-ooh Where are we runnin' now? Where you runnin', girl? I see you up there Oh, you up on that stage You up there I saw ya! (Where are we runnin'?) We need some time to clear our head (Where are we runnin'?) Keep on workin' 'til we're dead (Where are we runnin'?) Ooh-wee-ooh-wee-ooh Where are we runnin' now? (Yeah! Yeah!) (Where are we runnin'?) We need some time to clear our head (Where are we runnin'?) We keep on workin' 'til we're dead! (Where are we runnin'?) Ooh-wee-ooh-wee-ooh Where are we runnin' now? (Yeah! Yeah!) (Where are we runnin'?) (Whoo!) (Where are we runnin'?) (Where are we runnin'?) Ooh-wee-ooh-wee-ooh (Where are we runnin'?)
