[Verse 1]
I had a hard run
Running from your window
All night running
I wonder if you care
I had a run-in
Run around and run down
I saw him running, running
Run smack into a tree
[Chorus]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Verse 2]
Dressed myself in green
I went down under the sea
Try to see what's going down
Read between the lines
I had a feeling I was falling, falling
I turned around to see
Heard a voice calling, calling
It was running back to me
[Chorus]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Instrumental break]
[Chorus]
I had to move
Rеally had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bеnded knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Verse 3]
Ran into a rainstorm
Ducked into a bar door
It was all night pouring
But not a drop on me
Test me, test me, test me, test me
Why don't you arrest me?
Throw me in the jailhouse
Until the sun goes down
'Til it goes down
[Chorus]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Outro]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended 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 bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
Anymore, anymore
We're having a little technical problem here
