Fox on the Run

She walks through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shown like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love that a poor boy could give her
And left me to die like a fox on the run
Like a fox on the run

Now everybody knows the reason for the fall
When woman tempted man down in paradise’s hall
That woman tempted me and she took me for a ride
And just like a weary fox boys I need a place to hide

She walks through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shown like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love that a poor boy could give her
And left me to die like a fox on the run
Like a fox on the run

So poor a glass of shine to fortify our souls
And we’ll talk about the world and the friends we used to know
I see a string of girls who will put me on the floor
This game is nearly over and the hounds are at my door

She walks through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shown like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love that a poor boy could give her
And left me to die like a fox on the run
Like a fox on the run
