I had a hard run, runnin' from your window. |
|
I was all night running, running, lord i wonder if you care, |
|
I had a run in, run around, and run down. |
|
Run around the corner, corner, lord run smack in to a tree. |
|
I had to move, really had to move, |
|
That's why if you please, i am on my bendin' knees, |
|
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', fallin', |
|
I turned around to see, |
|
Heard a voice al callin', lord you was comin' after me. |
|
I had to move, really had to move, |
|
That's why if you please, i am on my bendin knees, |
|
Bertha don't you come around here anymore. |
|
Ran into a rainstorm, i ducked back into novato. |
|
It's all night pourin', pourin', pourin', |
|
Lord but not a drop on me. |
|
Test me, test me, |
|
Test me, test me, test me, |
|
Why don't you arrest me? |
|
Throw me in to the jailhouse, |
|
Lord until the sun goes down, 'till it goes down. |
|
I had to move, really had to move, |
|
That's why if you please, i am on my bendin' knees, |
|
Bertha don't you come around here anymore. |
|
I had to move, really had to move, |
|
That's why if you please, i am on my bendin' knees, |
|
Bertha don't you come around here anymore. |
