A Desperate Man

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I made a daring escape In the guise of a nun It took them most of the day To realize I was gone I crossed the forest and fields of wheat A farmer's daughter gave me something to eat I stole a paper just to see Picture of me [Chorus] I'm a desperate man I gotta keep on running I gotta do what I can To get back to you [Verse 2] I made the overnight ferry By the skin of my teeth I fell asleep between the truckers Sprawled across the seats I see your face everywhere I go In every café, watering hole What is the hold you've got on me Baby? [Chorus] I'm a desperate man I gotta keep on running I gotta do what I can To get back to you I'm a desperate man I gotta keep on running Running back to you Nobody else will do I'm a desperate man I gotta keep on running Running back to you Nobody else will do
