She never knew my name   Least not the one my Daddy gave me   I took off the way I came   Moonlight reflecting off the chrome   She didn't want my story, so I didn't have to lie   If I loved her it was only for a night      Living life on the run   You can't give your heart to no one   Your only friend is the setting sun   I didn't do what they said I done   I gotta stay one step ahead   Or one of these days I'm gonna wake up dead   Dropped in my tracks by a bullet from a lawman's gun   Oh, you can't rest a minute   When you're living on the run      The white lines on the road   That's the only trail I leave behind me   Been chasinghighline poles   Ever since the night i skipped out of town   somewhere in the distance i where I need to be   All I care about right now is speed      Living life on the run   You can't give your heart to no one   Your only friend is the setting sun   I didn't do what they said I done   I gotta stay one step ahead   Or one of these days I'm gonna wake up dead   Dropped in my tracks by a bullet from a lawman's gun   Oh, you can't rest a minute   When you're living life on the run      Here they come no, gotta lay low   Done bent the law till the law got broke   Here they come now, gotta lay low   Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa      Here they come now, they're closing in   Pack of blood hounds gonna catch my sent   Here they come now, now I'm gone again      Yeah   Living life on the run   You can't give your heart to no one   You can't rest a minute when you're living life on the run   No, you can't rest a minute when your're living life   On the run
