ON THE RUN (THEY'LL NEVER CATCH ME)
Damn the
ones who won't stop tryin' to track me down
Won't even let me catch my breath
The poster said that they could take me in alive
But I know they really want me dead
I've got to keep on moving
There's nowhere to hide
Truth is I ain't no angel
But there'll be no trial
They've got me on the run
But they'll never get my guns
They're tryin' to take my gold
But they can't steal my soul
They'd like to see me bleed
Or hanging from a tree
But as long as my spirit's free
- They'll never catch me
Curse the
day I ever learned to point a gun
I've been in trouble ever since
Spent my share of time on both sides of the law
I must've killed a dozen men
I just shot one too many
That's how it goes
I think I hear them coming
They're getting close
They've got me on the run
But they'll never get my guns
They're tryin' to take my gold
But they can't steal my soul
They'd like to see me bleed
Or hanging from a tree
But as long as my spirit's free
- They'll never catch me
They've got me on the run
But they'll never get my guns
They're tryin' to take my gold
But they can't steal my soul
They'd like to see me bleed
Or hanging from a tree
But as long as my spirit's free
- They'll never catch me
