Paul McCartney & Wings

Paul McCartney and Wings, often billed simply as Wings, were a British-American rock band formed in 1971 by former Beatles bassist and singer Paul McCartney, his wife Linda McCartney on keyboards, session drummer Denny Seiwell, and former Moody Blues guitarist Denny Laine. Wings were noted for their commercial successes, musical eclecticism and frequent personnel changes; going through three lead guitarists and four drummers. However, the core trio of the McCartneys and Laine remained intact throughout the group's existence. Created following the McCartneys' 1971 album Ram, the band's first two albums, Wild Life (1971) and Red Rose Speedway (1973) (the latter featuring guitarist Henry McCullough), were viewed as artistic disappointments beside Paul's work wit… more »

Stuck inside these four walls, 
Sent inside forever, 
Never seeing no one 
Nice again like you, 
Mama you, mama you. 

If I ever get out of here, 
Thought of giving it all away 
To a registered charity. 
All I need is a pint a day 
If I ever get outta here
If we ever get outta of here

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash 
As we fell into the sun, 
And the first one said to the second one there 
I hope you're having fun. 

Band on the run, band on the run. 
And the jailer man and sailor Sam 
Were searching every one 
For the band on the run, 
Band on the run 
Band on the run, 
Band on the run. 

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh 
Seeing no one else had come, 
And a bell was ringing in the village square 
For the rabbits on the run. 

Band on the run, 
Band on the run. 
And the jailer man and sailor Sam 
Were searching every one 
For the band on the run, 
Band on the run 

Yeah the band on the run,
Band on the run
Band on the run
Band on the run

Well, the night was falling as the desert world 
Began to settle down. 
In the town they're searching for us everywhere 
But we never will be found. 

Band on the run, 
Band on the run. 
And the county judge who held a grudge 
Will search for evermore 
For the band on the run, 
Band on the run 
Band on the run 
Band on the run
