Seems like it's rainin' harder today
Rain must've known I was comin' this way
It ain't easy living on the run

I pick up my step, pull my belt down tight
I can make it to the border by Saturday night
It ain't easy living on the run

Well, I loved me a woman in Tennessee
Broke free from the jail, now she's gunnin' for me
I'm on the run, living on the run
I'm on the run, living on the run

A woman wanted more than a man could steal
From the bottom of the decks where I learned to deal
It ain't easy living on the run

Women love an outlaw, so they say
I'll be an outlaw 'til my dyin' day
It ain't easy living on the run

Yeah, I left me a woman in Tennessee
Broke free from the jail, now she's gunnin' for me
I'm on the run, living on the run
I'm on the run, living on the run

Well, I love me a woman in Tennessee
I broke free from the jail, now she's gunnin' for me
I'm on the run, living on the run

Yeah, well, I loved me a woman in Tennessee
I broke free from the jail, now she's gunnin' for me
I'm on the run, living on the run
I'm on the run, living on the run
