Something's really happening to my mind

And it's time to get out

Sitting here confessing to myself

And I gotta hurry

Hiding out on Maggie's farm for days

And you know it's hurting

Thinking 'bout the things I should have done

And you know I'm breaking

Sheriff's got his men out every day

There's awful surely something in my trail

Lord, you know I'm dying, I got to keep on trying

I just got to clear up my name

Hide out

Just what I got to say, you gotta listen

Can't you see I'm dying, Lord?

Hide out

Just what I got to say, you gotta listen

Gotta tell you that I got to get back

I am breaking

Ooh, can't stop it

Time is running out

No more hiding, hurting

Ooh, ooh, pleading, bleeding, ah

Say I killed a man in Georgia state

So I had to get out

It's either him or me, but nobody gotta see

And I can't go back

For a woman's love, but they said it was cold-blooded

Had to leave the town, but I guess they didn't care

And you know I'm breaking

Sheriff's got his men out every day, Lord

The dogs were surely searching in my trail

Lord, you know I'm dying, I got to keep on trying

Just got to clear up my name

Hide out

Just what I got to say, you gotta listen

Can't you see I'm dying, Lord?

Hide out

Just what I got to say, you gotta listen

Gotta tell you that I just can't go back

I am breaking

Ooh, can't stop it

Time is running out

No more hiding, hurting

Ooh, ooh, pleading, bleeding, ah
