[Intro] Of course, I wouldn't want you to think that everybody born in Trouble was born bad, and they either had to get good or stay bad. But some of 'em born on the other side of that railroad track just never could find the time or a good enough teacher to learn about being good [Verse 1] You were born by a railroad track Never knew your ma and your pa ain't comin' back Had to make your way the best you can But you didn't have to steal from another man [Chorus] Run, boy, run, boy, run, boy, run They're gonna get you, boy, run, boy, run They're gonna catch you, boy, run, boy, run Run, boy, run, boy, run, boy, run [Verse 2] Think you're a man 'cause you're 21 Shot a man for nothin' and away you run Wanted in most every state from here to Tennessee If you're caught you'll do your runnin' hangin' from a tree [Chorus] Run, boy, run, boy, run, boy, run They're gonna get you, boy, run, boy, run They're gonna catch you, boy, run, boy, run Run, boy, run, boy, run, boy, run [Verse 3] Storm clouds lookin' down from the sky And hangman's noose swingin' on a tree nearby A verse on a tombstone that won't be read by you Says his runnin's done at 21, he won't see 22 [Chorus] Run, boy, run, boy, run, boy, run They're gonna get you, boy, run, boy, run They're gonna catch you, boy, run, boy, run Run, boy, run, boy, run, boy, run [Outro] Run, boy, run, boy, run, boy, run
