Life On the Run

She never knew my name Least not the one my daddy gave me I took off the way I came Moonlight reflectin' off the chrome She didn't want my story so I didn't have to lie If I loved her it was only for a night Livin' life on the run You can't give your heart to no one Your only friend is the settin' sun I didn't do what they said I'd done I gotta stay one step ahead Or one of these days I'm gonna wake up dead Dropped in my tracks by a bullet from a lawman's gun Oh, you can't rest a minute when you're livin' life on the run The white lines on the road That's the only trail I leave behind me Been chasin' high-line poles Ever since the night I skipped out of town Somewhere in the distance is where I need to be All I care about right now is speed Livin' life on the run You can't give your heart to no one Your only friend is the settin' sun I didn't do what they said I'd done I gotta stay one step ahead Or one of these days I'm gonna wake up dead Dropped in my tracks by a bullet from a lawman's gun No, you can't rest a minute when you're livin' life on the run Here we go Here they come now, gotta lay low Done bent the law till the law got broke Here they come now, gotta lay low Here they come now, they're closin' in Pack of bloodhounds gonna catch my scent Here they come now, now I'm gone again, yeah Livin' life on the run You can't give your heart to no one You can't rest a minute when you're livin' life on the run No, you can't rest a minute when you're livin' life on the run
