I really thought I knew it all concerning sweet romance 
'Cause when it came to purdy girls, I'd always take a chance 
I felt that I could handle love with just a little luck 
Then all at once you hit me like a ten tonne diesel truck! 

[Chorus:]
Hit and run, hit and run - you left me cryin' there 
Wasted love, a victim of a hit and run affair! 
Had your fun, now you're done, my bleeding heart is bare 
Couldn't see that it would be a hit and run affair! 
 
The way that Grant took Richmond was the way you captured me 
You roped me and ya tied me, I was helpless as can be! 
You told me purdy stories, and you said you'd never stray 
Ya picked me up and knocked me down, and then you ran away! 
 
[Chorus x 2]
