  • I wanna see your pom-poms from the stands
    Come on, come on

    My fingertips and my lips
    They burn from the cigarettes
    Forrest Gump
    You run my mind, boy
    Running on my mind, boy
    Forrest Gump

    I know you, Forrest
    I know you wouldn't hurt a beetle
    But you're so buff and so strong
    I'm nervous, Forrest
    Forrest Gump

    My fingertips and my lips
    They burn from the cigarettes
    Forrest Gump
    You run my mind, boy
    Running on my mind, boy
    Forrest Gump

    I saw your game, Forrest
    (Well, all eyes are on number forty-four)
    I was screaming, "Run forty-four"
    But you kept running past the end zone
    (He could just be the stupidest son of a bitch alive)
    Oh, where'd you go, Forrest? (Sure is fast)
    Forrest Gump

    My fingertips and my lips
    They burn from the cigarettes
    Forrest Gump
    You run my mind, boy
    Running on my mind, boy
    Forrest Gump

    Forrest green, Forrest blues
    I'm remembering you
    If this is love, I know it's true
    I won't forget you
    (You, you, oh, you, you) yeah
    It's for you, Forrest (no, no, no, no)
    (It's you, you, oh, you, you)
    It's for you, Forrest
