I’m A Runaway Lyrics

[Intro]
He's a runaway
He's a runaway

[Verse 1]
Give me my head and let me go
I'm not bred for traveling slow
And muck and mock and rodeo
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)

[Verse 2]
Got no time to be delayed
Always call a spade a spade
There's a lotta debts I haven't paid
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)

[Verse 3]
I'll beg or steal or barter
My saddle and my tack
I'm ready for tomorrow
And I'm never coming back

[Verse 4]
Oh, follow my tracks and you will find
The broken hearts I've left behind
'Cause I'm just not the marryin' kind
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)

[Verse 5]
So many sights I've never seen
So many prairies in between
Got a strong, young horse and a full canteen
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)
So many gals I haven't mеt
So many hearts I haven't met
Gotta takе a chance every chance I get
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)

[Verse 6]
I'm heading for the border
As peaceful as can be
I'm all for law and order
As long as they don't bother me

[Verse 7]
So many nights for having fun
So many fights I haven't won
There's not enough notches on my gun
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)
I'm a runaway (Runaway, runaway)
