Standard (EADGBE)

Seems like it's raining harder today

The rain must've known I was comin' 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 gunnin' 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 deck's 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.

I killed me a woman in Tennessee

I Just broke jail and they're gunnin' for me

I'm on the run, living on the run

I'm on the run, living on the run
