Lyrics

Well I hope to tell you Johnny
Better lay that rifle down
Let's leave the noose and the calaboose
And head it for another town
Well I've got your name in San Jose
And your picture's there to see
And they're shootin' men in Texas
Just because they look like me
And we will run the ridges
Of our green land Tennessee
And we will hide for forty years
If that's what's meant to be
Meant to be, meant to be
Meant to be, meant to be, meant to be
Hey we could try for Mexico
And cross the desert sand
But they're guardin' close the border
In case we swim the Rio Grande
And we will run the ridges
Of our green land Tennessee
And we will hide for forty years
If that's what's meant to be
Meant to be, meant to be
Meant to be, meant to be, meant to be
Well they'll rope and tie you Johnny
And they'll throw you to the ground
And they'll let you hang a week or two
Before they cut your body down
And we will run the ridges
Of our green land Tennessee
And we will hide for forty years
If that's what's meant to be
Meant to be, meant to be
And we will run the ridges
Of our green land Tennessee
And we will hide for forty years
If that's what's meant to be
Meant to be, meant to be
Meant to be, meant to be, meant to be
Meant to be, meant to be, meant to be
