I had a hard run, runnin' from your window |
|
I was all night running, running, Lord, I wonder if you care |
|
I had a run in, run around and run down |
|
Run around the corner, corner, Lord, run smack in to a tree |
|
I had to move, really had to move |
|
That's why if you please, I am on my bendin' knees |
|
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore |
|
Dressed myself in green, I went down unto the sea |
|
Try to see what's goin' down, try to read between the lines |
|
I had a feelin' I was fallin', fallin', fallin', I turned around to see |
|
Heard a voice al callin', Lord, you was comin' after me |
|
I had to move, really had to move |
|
That's why if you please, I am on my bendin' knees |
|
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore |
|
Ran into a rainstorm, I ducked back into a bar door |
|
It's all night pourin', pourin', pourin', Lord, but not a drop on me |
|
Test me, test me, test me, test me, test me |
|
Why don't you arrest me? Throw me in to the jail house |
|
Lord, until the sun goes down, 'til it goes down |
|
I had to move, really had to move |
|
That's why if you please, I am on my bendin' knees |
|
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore |
|
I had to move, really had to move |
|
That's why if you please, I am on my bendin' knees, |
|
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore |
