If I have to run, I'm not runnin' out on you
If I have to shake a little sand out of my shoes
I'm runnin' from the law, or they'll put me inside
Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide
Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide
I've been on the run since the Good Lord knows when
And the day I die
I'll still be runnin' then
Runnin' from the days when I would lay me down and cry
Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide
Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide
Will I love you tomorrow
Yes, I will my love
Oh yes I will, my love
Will I beg, steal or borrow
Yes, I will my love
Oh yes I will, my love
To spend a little time happy to be by your side
Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide
If I have to run, I'm not runnin' out on you
If I have to shake a little sand out of my shoes
I'm runnin' from the law, or they'll put me inside
Baby, won't you let me have a little time
Baby, won't you let me have a little time
Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide
