On the Run One early morning I just pack a bag and leave I Knew this day would come where Iwould have to flee The men in black suits they are always watching me I cannot stay here now I can no longer be Things that pose a threat, Seem so real in my head Them I stop and stare, They are really there I meet a stranger who lets me hitch a ride out west... He talks a lot and bores me yet I feel so blessed And after hundreds of miles we do part our ways On different roads we travel on and on for days Things I'm running from, The beat of different drums Then I stop and see, Them catching up with me Things that pose a threat, Seem so real in my head Them I stop and stare, They are really there Things I'm running from, The beat of different drums Then I stop and see, Them catching up with me.
