On the Run

On the Run

There was a young boy
who was on the run

for he had done sumthin'
really bad
with his daddy's gun

he took flight
into the sun..
for the deed he did
with his daddy's gun.

Now this boy knew
if he got caught
his life was over
no more fun
the life he'd see
would be blocked by bars
for the deed he did
with his daddy's gun.

now this young man
stopped for the night
tryin' to get some shut-eye
the memories of this deed he did
haunted his conscience

he dozed off for a minute or two
when up walked a man in blue
he said son, what is it that ya do?

This boy woke up
heart jumped
he knew..

so he turned his car on real fast
and he ran from this man in blue
just for fun..
he couldn't get caught
because of the horrible deed
he'd done
with his daddy's gun.

Identity forgotten
not longer significant
this boy turned quickly
into a man

There was a man
who was on the run

for he had done sumthin'
really bad
with his daddy's gun

disappeared with out a trail
for living out his life
he would not fail.
he will never be caught
for this deed he did
with his daddy's gun.
