Fox on The Run — текст песни (Tom T. Hall)

(chorus)

She walks through the corn leadin down to the river

Her hair shone like gold in the hot mornin 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, like a fox, like a fox on the run



Now everybody knows the reason for my fall

A woman tempted me down in paradise hall

This woman tempted me and she took me for a ride

Like a lonely fox, boys, I need a place to hide



(chorus)



Oh, well drink a glass of wine, boys, to purify our soul

Well talk about the world and the friends we used to know

I see a string of girls who have put me on before

The game is nearly over and the hounds are at the door



(chorus)
