BR5-49 - Run A Mile Lyrics
C. Mead, D. HerronRun a mile run a mile to the riverGonna throw off the hunting houndsRun a mile run a mile to the riverGonna wash away or drownI was only there for a minuteI was only passing throughI was only being friendly but her pappy said he'd send me to the grave forwhat I wanted to doI should've known when she was so willingI should've known that she was just a kidI should've known I was a stranger and that I would be in danger oversomething that I never didRun a mileI can't believe the story that she told her mom and daddy and the vigilante crowd in townThat Lolita of the country set the dogs out on me Lord they're gonna take me downI'd rather swing a hammer in an Alabama slammer than to face what's coming after meI'm gotta make it to the water, ride it to the border let the scent wash off of meRun a mile
