Fox on the Run

She walked through the corn leading down to the river Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun She took all the love that a poor boy could give her And left me to die like the fox on the run Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run Everybody knows the reason for the fall When woman tempted man down in paradise's hall This woman tempted me, oh yes, then took me for a ride But like the weary fox I need a place to hide She walked through the corn leading down to the river Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun She took all the love that a poor boy could give her And left me to die like the fox on the run Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run Come take a glass of wine and fortify your soul We'll talk about the world and friends we used to know I'll illustrate a girl who put me on the floor The game is nearly up, the hounds are at my door I saw her walk through the corn leading down to the river Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun (she took my love) She took all the love that a poor boy could give her And left me to die like the fox on the run You know she through the corn leading down to the river Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun (all of my love) She took all the love that a poor boy could give her And left me to die like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run
