They Won't Let Me Run lyrics
Song information
Artist: John Vanderslice Album: Cellar Door
Lyrics
I was born A couple miles from here My family rented me this house So my family keeps me near
From 1909 My family's run the town You step out of line, poor sap Family council will sit you down
One day I fell in love And of course we fucked around The morning she threw up My options were all laid out
I followed through And now I got two sons No peace even when you come 'Cause they won't let you run
I got dead drunk And packed up the pickup truck Got way out of town, I thought But sheriff tracked me down
They dragged me home And the family sat me down They kept me cuffed up and they roughed me up and said: "We'll never let you run."
