Keep On Running

She had a white wedding
One hundred guests and a four piece band
But she's as sad as Sunday
The groom's as cold as a snowman's hand
But out of nowhere
Came her savior
Down the aisle
Comes Johnny from the promised land

As long as we keep on running
They'll never catch me
As long as we keep on running
Honey, we'll stay free

In an old motel they fell asleep
After driving through the night
The word's gone out on the Citizens Band
Her Daddy's put a price on Johnny's life
But out of danger
Deep in Texas
She found heaven
Hanging onto Johnny's hand

As long as we keep on running
They'll never catch me
As long as we keep on running
Honey, we'll stay free

And if you break away
I can give you a fast car going west
Ain't got a lot of time
But 24 hours of happiness
And if you wake one day
And hear my voice on a cool breeze blowing south
Remember you and me
Living our life in 24 hours

Soon enough they'll track us down
Time runs out for freedom in the end
Well, it's bars for me and the bride-to-be
In her Daddy's Caddy
Abducted from the promised land

As long as we keep on running
They'll never catch me
As long as we keep on running
Honey, we'll stay free

As long as we keep on running
They'll never catch me
As long as we keep on running
Honey, we'll stay free
