I came from the mud
There's dirt on my hands
Strong like a tree
There's roots where I stand
Oh I've been running from the law
Hope they won't shoot me down soon
Pacing on a sleepless night
Try to catch me howling at the moon
When it rains it pours
Water's up to my chin
Won't stop fighting
To the very end
Many men try to reach it
Many men have failed
If you wanna get to heaven
You gotta raise a little hell
And I've been running from the law
Hope they won't shoot me down soon
