Run A Mile — текст песни (BR5-49)

C. Mead, D. Herron

Run a mile run a mile to the river
Gonna throw off the hunting hounds
Run a mile run a mile to the river
Gonna wash away or drown

I was only there for a minute
I was only passing through
I was only being friendly but her pappy said he`d send me to the grave for
what I wanted to do
I should`ve known when she was so willing
I should`ve known that she was just a kid
I should`ve known I was a stranger and that I would be in danger over
something that I never did

Run a mile

I can`t believe the story that she told her mom and daddy and the vigilante crowd in town
That Lolita of the country set the dogs out on me Lord they`re gonna take me down
I`d rather swing a hammer in an Alabama slammer than to face what`s coming after me
I`m gotta make it to the water, ride it to the border let the scent wash off of me

Run a mile
