I had a hard run
Running from your window
I was all night running
I wonder if you care?
I had a run-in
Run around and run down
Run around a corner
Run smack into a tree
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha don't you come around here anymore
Dressed myself in green
I went down to the sea
Try to see what's going, going down
Trying to read between the lines
Had a feeling I was falling, falling, falling
I turned around to see
Heard a voice calling
You was comin after me
Back to me
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha don't you come around here anymore
Ran into a rainstorm
I ducked into a bar door
It was all night pouring, pouring rain
But not a drop on me
Test me, test me
Why don't you arrest me?
Throw me in the jail house
Wait until the sun goes down
Going down
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha don't you come around here anymore
I had to move
I really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha don't you come around here anymore
I had to move
I really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Oh Bertha don't you come around here anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore
