paroles de chanson Run a Mile - Hard Working Americans

Well I was only there for a minute
I was only passing through
I was only being friendly
But her pappy said he'd send me
To a grave for what I tried to do
I should've known when she was so willin'
I should've known that she was only a kid
I should've known I's a stranger
I would be in danger
For something that I nearly did
Run a mile, run a mile to the river
Gonna throw off the hunting hound
Run a mile, run a mile to the river
I'm gonna wash away or drown
Well I can't believe the story
That she told her mom and daddy
And the vigilante crowd in town
That Lolita of the country
Set the dogs out on me
Lord they're tryin' to take me down
I would rather swing a hammer
In the Alabama slammer
Than to face what's coming after me
I'm gotta make it to the water
Ride it to the border
Let the scent wash off of me
Run a mile, run a mile to the river
Gonna throw off the hunting hound
Run a mile, run a mile to the river
I'm gonna wash away or drown
Well I can't believe the story
That she told her mom and daddy
And the vigilante crowd in town
That Lolita of the country
Got the dogs out on me
Lord they're tryin' to take me down
I would rather swing a hammer
In the Alabama slammer
Than to face what's coming after me
I'm gotta make it to the water
Ride it to the border
Let the sin wash off of me
Run a mile, run a mile to the river
Gonna throw off the hunting hound
Run a mile, run a mile to the river
I'm gonna wash away
Run a mile, run a mile to the river
Gonna throw off the hunting hound
Run a mile, run a mile to the river
I'm gonna wash away or drown
