C G C
I had a hard run, runnin' from your window
C G C
I was all night runnin', runnin', Lord I wonder if you care
C G C
I had a run in, run around and run down
C G C
Run around the corner, corner, Lord I run smack into a tree
CHORUS
D Am G C D
I had to move, move, really had to move
C G D C
That's why if you please, I am on my hand and knees
Am C G
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, I turned around to see
Heard a voice callin', you were comin' after me
[CHORUS]
Ran into a rainstorm, I ducked back into a bar door
It's all night pourin', pourin', Lord but not a drop on me
Test me, test me, test me, why don't you arrest me
Throw me into the jail house, Lord until the sun goes down
[CHORUS]
