Runnin’ from the hounds (Lee Rocker)

Dead´s man kinfolk tracking me down Judge and the jury waiting in the town Footprints on the river bank Cover up my trail Ain’t no way I’m gonna spend another night in jail Runnin’ from the hounds Flash lights, flash floods Never will be found Hiding in the marshes Runnin’ from the hounds Just like a shootout from the wild, wild west Bullets fly right by, I can’t stop to rest Running from the pouring rain Breathing hard and fast Must be catching up to me I head a shotgun blast Runnin’ from the hounds Flash lights, flash floods Never will be found Hiding in the marshes Runnin’ from the hounds Runnin’ from the hounds Juke joint justice, Louisiana law Swamp land, understand I can’t take no more Sheriff on the radio Calling to his boys Heading for the interstate Hear the city noise Runnin’ from the hounds Flash lights, flash floods Never will be found Hiding in the marshes Runnin’ from the hounds Runnin’ from the hounds Dead´s man kinfolk tracking me down Judge and the jury waiting in the town Footprints on the river bank Cover up my trail Ain’t no way I’m gonna spend another night in jail Runnin’ from the hounds Flash lights, flash floods Never will be found Hiding in the marshes Runnin’ from the hounds Runnin’ from the hounds Runnin’ from the hounds Runnin’ from the hounds Runnin’ from the hounds Runnin’ from the hounds Runnin’ from the hounds
