Run Songtext
von Stonewall Jackson

A bluebird a wingin′ his lonely way south
Trying to escape from the cold and the drought
He's all alone in a cold gray sky
Fly little bluebird fly, fly, fly

North wind a blowin′ oh so cold
Poor little birdie so brave and so bold
He just keeps a flyin' for a southern sky
His only hope is to fly, fly, fly


Well he's not the only one that′s on that trail
This old boy he just broke jail
Always runnin′ always afraid
The good Lord above knows I've paid paid paid

Train whistle moanin′ oh so low
And I don't even know where to go
I just keep a-following the rising sun
My only hope is to run, run, run

Well I would like to give up and turn myself in
But they would only bury me under the pen
So I′ll keep a runnin' until the day I die
The thought of this it makes me want to cry, cry, cry


Train whistle moanin′ oh so low
And I don't even know where to go
I just keep a-following the rising sun
My only hope is to run, run, run, run
