Living On The Run lyrics

By: David Allan Coe and Jimmy Howard

SEEMS LIKE IT'S RAINING' HARDER TODAY
THE RAIN MUST OF KNOWN I WAS COMING' THIS WAY
IT AIN'T EASY LIVING ON THE RUN
IF I PICK UP MY STEP AND PULL MY BELT DOWN TIGHT
I CAN MAKE IT TO THE BORDER BY SATURDAY NIGHT
AND IT'S LONELY LIVING ON THE RUN

I KILLED ME A WOMAN IN TENNESSEE
I JUST BROKE JAIL AND THEY'RE GUNNING' FOR ME
I'M ON THE RUN, LIVING ON THE RUN
I'M ON THE RUN, LIVING ON THE RUN

MY WOMAN WANTED MORE THAN A MAN COULD STEAL
FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE DECKS WHERE I LEARNED TO DEAL
AND IT GOT ME LIVING ON THE RUN
WOMEN LOVE AN OUTLAW I HEARD FOLKS SAY
AND I'LL BE AN OUTLAW TILL MY DYING DAY
CAUSE IT GOT ME LIVING ON THE RUN
