Run, boy, yeah, keep runnin', boy, you can't outrun me

Run, boy, yeah, keep runnin', boy, you can't outrun me

Let me tell you a story 'bout a boy from the sticks

He was twelve years old when he had his first sip

And the whiskey burned, but it helped him forget

The scars from his past, he's been numb ever since

Then I sent out a demon, disguised as a friend

To give him the key that would lead to his end

It starts with a bump on the road to the damned

And now he's addicted, ha, just how I planned

Run, boy, yeah, keep runnin', boy, you can't outrun me

Run, boy, yeah, keep runnin', boy, you can't outrun me

Run, boy, yeah, keep runnin', boy, you can't outrun me

Run, boy, yeah, keep runnin', boy, you can't outrun me

As he got weaker, I tightened my grip

I made him my puppet, performin' my tricks

Summoned his body to go on a quest

To spread all my darkness and poison his friends

So he poured them all drinks and he said it was wine

But he spiked it with smack, ha, now they're all mine

Run, boy, yeah, keep runnin', boy, you can't outrun me

Run, boy, yeah, keep runnin', boy, you can't outrun me

Ah
