Fox On The Run

She walks through the corn
leading down by the river.
Her hair shone 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.

Everybody knows the reason for the fall.
How woman tempted man down in paradise hall.
This woman tempted me, and took me for a ride.
How like a weary fox, I need a place to hide.

She walks through the corn
leading down by the river.
Her hair shone 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.
We'll drink a glass of wine to fortify our souls
Talk about the world and the friends we used to know
I've seen a string of girls that put me on the floor.
My race is almost run, the hounds are at my door.

She walks through the corn
leading down by the river.
Her hair shone 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.
