Seems like it's raining' harder today
The rain must of known I was coming' this way
It ain't easy living on the run
If I pick up my step and pull my belt down tight
I can make it to the border by Saturday night
And it's lonely living on the run
I killed me a woman in Tennessee
I just broke jail and they're gunning for me
I'm on the run, living on the run
I'm on the run, living on the run
My woman wanted more than a man could steal
From the bottom of the decks where I learned to deal
And it got me living on the run
Women love an outlaw, I heard folks say
And I'll be an outlaw 'til my dying day
'Cause it got me (got me) living on the run
I killed me a woman in Tennessee
I just broke jail and they're gunning for me
I'm on the run, living on the run
I'm on the run, living on the run
