Runaway Man Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Down in Mississippi, where the river winds slow,
There's a man on the run, with nowhere to go.
Stole a bag of diamonds, from a rich man’s vault,
Now he's a wanted man, though it wasn't his fault.
[Chorus]
I'm a runaway man, can't hide from my fate,
Every shadow, every sound, keeps me wide awake.
With the law on my heels, and no place to call home,
Just a lonesome fugitive, always on the roam.
[Verse 2]
Started in Memphis, where the sirens wailed loud,
Took the back roads, trying to lose the crowd.
Through the swamps and the bayous, 'neath the moon's pale light,
He’s been running for days, can't sleep at night.
[Chorus]
I'm a runaway man, can't hide from my fate,
Every shadow, every sound, keeps me wide awake.
With the law on my heels, and no place to call home,
Just a lonesome fugitive, always on the roam.
[Verse 3]
Met a woman in Baton Rouge, with eyes so kind,
She gave him shelter, a place to unwind.
But the law came knocking, he had to flee,
Left her standing in the doorway, whispering, "Remember me."
[Chorus]
I'm a runaway man, can't hide from my fate,
Every shadow, every sound, keeps me wide awake.
With the law on my heels, and no place to call home,
Just a lonesome fugitive, always on the roam.
