A pretty woman, a one night stand, 
A jealous lover with a gun in his hand 
Got you tied to the scene of the crime 
An innocent man in the wrong place at the wrong time 

The heat of passion the flash of a gun 
Ain’t no pity for a man on the run 
Faded to black when he made his attack 
You pack it in boy, hit the road 
and never look back 

But justice was denied 
You’re a wanted man, dead or alive 
Run, run, run 
Nowhere to hide, you’re under the gun 
Run, run, run 
20 to life the damage is done 
Run, run, run

Never saw it comin’ but you’re takin’ the fall 
Never outrun the long arm of the law 
Cloak and dagger in the still of the night 
You better steal away boy,  
hit the road, and stay out of sight 

Wakin’ up in a cold, cold sweat 
from a nightmare scene that you can’t forget 
Hard time comin’ for a moment of fun 
A cold hard fact for an innocent man on the run 

(chorus)

Run, run, run 
Pack it in boy, never look back 
Run, run, run
Pack it in boy, hit the road, never look back 

Run, run, run 
Nowhere to hide, you’re under the gun 
Run, run, run 
20 to life
