Running

I love the smell of fresh-cut hay
 On both sides of the road
 Out here on the highway
 Just countin' power line poles
 And how the stars shine a little brighter
 When I'm outside of town
 I been running
 Oh, I been runnin', I ain't slowing down
 Runnin' all my life
 If I ain't driving, I'm shotgunnin'
 Watching all these good times
 Keep on coming down the line
 Ain't gonna let them pass me by
 Oh, I guess that I'll be runnin' all my life
 Fast as I could, I left the old hometown in a cloud of dust
 I figured if I stuck around too long
 I might turn to rust
 With a bed roll, Buck knife, and two T-shirts
 In a gunny sack
 I took off runnin'
 Oh, I took off runnin'
 I ain't looking back
 Runnin' all my life
 If I ain't driving, I'm shotgunnin'
 Just watching all these good times
 Keep on coming down the line
 Ain't gonna let them pass me by
 Oh, I guess that I'll be runnin' all my life
 Guess that I'll be runnin' all my life
 There's a girl just south of Houston
 Her true heart beats for me
 It takes a lot of patience, Lord
 To love a man this free
 Someday, I'm gonna make it home
 And lay in our warm bed
 Baby, I'm runnin'
 You know I'm runnin', if I ain't there yet
 Runnin' all my life
 If I ain't driving, I'm shotgunnin'
 Just watching all these good times
 Keep on coming down the line
 Ain't gonna let them pass me by
 I keep runnin' all my life
 If I ain't driving, I'm shotgunnin'
 Just watching all these good times
 Keep on coming down the line
 Ain't gonna let them pass me by
 Oh, I guess that I'll be runnin' all my life
 Guess that I'll be runnin' all my life
 Guess that I'll be runnin' all my life
 Woo!
 (C'mon, little boy!)
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
 Runnin'
