Fox on the Run is een nummer van de Britse band The Sweet. Het verscheen op hun album Desolation Boulevard uit 1974. In maart 1975 werd het nummer uitgebracht als de derde en laatste single van het album.
"Fox on the Run" is a song by English glam rock band Sweet, first recorded in 1974. It was the first Sweet single with the A-side written by the band, rather than by producers Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman, and was their 14th single overall. The song became the best charting single in Australia in 1975, with six weeks at number one. It also returned the group to the UK top ten after the failure of their previous single "Turn It Down" to make the top 40.
Two versions were recorded by Sweet. The original version was produced by Mike Chapman in association with Nicky Chinn on the European version of the 1974 album Desolation Boulevard. Sweet also recorded and produced a more pop-oriented rendition as a 7" single in 1975, which is the more familiar version of the song. The 1975 single was included on the Capitol Records version of Desolation Boulevard.
The song's inclusion in the trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 led to a number one spot on the iTunes Rock Chart in late 2016.
