Living on the Run Songtext

von David Allan Coe

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
