When you run from town to town
Just like me you got to know what you runnin’ from
When you run from town to town
Better know what you really running from
‘Cause you may run the same thing
Where you just come from
You got to keep your eyes open
Please don’t be no fool
Keep your eyes open boy
Please don’t be no fool
Yes if the washing don’t get you
I’m telling you the rinsin’ it sure will
Talkin’ about the people been on my back
Been ridin’ me from town to town
They been on my back
Riding me from town to town
But I don’t let nothin get next to me Man
I keep on doin’ what I’m doin’
Um oh lordy lory lord
Oh Yeah Lord Lord Lordy Lord
Now if the washing don’t get you
I’m tellin you the rinsin’ well will do
