The Runaway - Tall Heights

Very old and free is this voice I heard

Echoed in the breeze and the buffalo herd

All that I learn from the beasts and these birds is it’s home to me

And that’s alright when they say

Burial at sea is this bust-up line

According to the customs and creed of this culture my tribe

That was never me, that request was not mine I

Wanted to choke on the rifle smoke, yeah I

Wanted to go down with my right hand broke

C’mon yeah

I wanted to go down with my right hand broke

Cause in the motorcade I’m a runaway

And I’ll never change not tomorrow

Safe and merrily I left dignified, well

Rapids on the stream make a wild ride

Your life is but a dream if you bide and bide

But I’ll be on that boat when the water’s wide yeah I

Wanted to learn to love before I die

C’mon yeah

I wanted to learn to love before I die

In the motorcade I’m a runaway

And I’ll never change not tomorrow

Somebody said «Hey, is there any end in sight?»

Somebody said «Hey, to this foolish foolish ride»

In the motorcade I’m a runaway

And I’ll never change not tomorrow

In the motorcade I’m a runaway

And I’ll never change not tomorrow

C’mon yeah

I wanted to go down with my right broke oh yeah
