Lyrics

I got those wheels for nothin', yeah, some cash to burn
Talk of the town keep movin'
No excuses, no return
Too dumb to steal, too proud to beg - don't shake my tree
I've been around the block
There money's tight and nothing's free!

An angels face and butcher eyes, a quiet prayer - pack of lies
They call you fate - I call you pain and here I go again!..

On the run
My journey's just begun! I'm
On the run
Oh god, what have I done!
On the run
Like a unforgiven son, I'm
On the run!
Like a night I'm chasin' down..

I won't take any crap and I'm not comin' back
I gonna give you kind of peace of mind
No - shadow's right behind your back
I've pumped it up, you've called me bad news, now I'm gone
No pity regrets 'bout
Things I've said and things I've done

Look all around the place - law's gone, there's no respect
Don't get too close I've got my reputation to protect!
So check it out the place is dead - low life, no fun
You listen up, and listen good -
I'm better off just livin' on the run!
