If I have to run, Im not runnin out on you.
If I have to shake a little sand out of my shoes,
Im runnin from the law, or theyll put me inside.
Baby, wont you let me have a little time to hide.
Baby, wont you let me have a little time to hide.
Ive been on the run since the good lord knows when,
And the day I die,
Ill still be runnin then,
Runnin from the days when I would lay me down and cry.
Baby, wont you let me have a little time to hide.
Baby, wont you let me have a little time to hide.
Will I love you tomorrow?
Yes, I will; my love,
Oh yes I will, my love.
Will I beg, steal or borrow?
Yes, I will; my love,
Oh yes I will, my love.
To spend a little time happy to be by your side.
Baby, wont you let me have a little time to hide.
If I have to run, Im not runnin out on you.
If I have to shake a little sand out of my shoes,
Im runnin from the law, or theyll put me inside.
Baby, wont you let me have a little time,
Baby, wont you let me have a little time,
Baby, wont you let me have a little time to hide.
