If I have to run, I?m not running out on you. If I have to shake a little sand out of my shoes.
   I?m running from the law or they'll put me inside.
   Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide?
   Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide?
  
   I?ve been on the run since the good Lord knows when. And the day I die, I?ll still be running then.
   Running from the days when I would lay me down and cry.
   Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide?
   Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide?
  
   Will I love you tomorrow? Yes, I will my love, yes, I will, my love.
   Will I beg, steal or borrow? Yes, I will my love, yes, I will, my love
   to spend a little time happy to be by your side.
   Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide?
   Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide?
