In the middle of the night i heard a * * * on the door
jumped outta my bed put my feet on the stone cold floor
i snuck a look out the window
didn like what i saw
there was your father & your brother & his best friend
your grandpa & your mother & your sister’s man
your father had a gun; brother had a rope;
grandpa had an axe… & me? Not a hope!
So I ran; caught a bus called a cab and i ran
hitched a lift, caught a plane, stole a car, jumped a train
and i ran, ran, ran, cos i don’t like pain!
Now every single morning i wake up drippin with sweat
got a whirlpool in my stomach and a jackhammer in my head
i believe if they catch me,
your family’s gonna want me dead!
There was your father & your brother & his best friend
etc!
I remember me and you were doin * * * in my car
We were havin fun but i guess we drove out too far
now i’m runnin like a dog
and they know where all my hideouts are
there was your father & your brother & his best friend
etc
Sure is a shame; but i ain’t stayin
cos i know their game; and they ain’t playin
in this ditch i’m a layin’; hidin’ & a prayin’
gonna change my name – hit the road again
cos i don’t like pain!!!
