[whistling] (He's a runaway)
[whistling] (He's a runaway)
Give my hat and let me go
I'm not bred for travellin' slow
Like a buck and broncin' rodeo
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
Got no time to be delayed
Always calls a spade a spade
There's a lot of debts I haven't paid
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
I'll beg or steal or borrow
My saddle and my tack
I'm headin' for tomorrow
And I'm never comin' back, oh
Follow my tracks and you will find
Broken hearts I've left behind
Cause I'm just not the marryin' kind
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
So many sights I've never seen
So many prairies in between
Got a strong young horse and a full canteen
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
So many gals I haven't met
So many cards I haven't bet
Gonna take a chance, every chance I get
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
A-heading for the border
As peaceful as can be
I'm off for law and order
Long as they don't bother me
So many nights for havin' fun
So many fights I haven't won
There's not enough notches on my gun
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway
[whistling] I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (runaway, runaway)
