Everglades - Skeets McDonald

Written by:Harlan Howard

He was born and raised around Jacksonville

A nice young man not the kind to kill

But the jealous fight and a flashing blade

Sent him on the run through the everglades

Runnin' like the dog through the everglades

Well the posse went in and they came back out

They said he'll die and there ain't no doubt

It's an eye for an eye so the debt is paid

He won't last long in the everglades

A man can't live in the everglades

Where a man can hide and never be found

And have no fear of the baying hounds

But he better keep movin' and don't stand still

If the skeeters don't get him in Gatesville

The skeeters don't get him in the Gatesville

Now the years went by and his girl was wed

His family gave him up for dead

But now and then the natives would say

They'd seen him a runnin' through the everglades

Runnin' like the dog through the everglades

Now he never heard the news on the radio

He was deep in the glades and he'll never know

He's runnin' and a hidin' didn't make much sense

The jury had ruled it was self defence

The jury had ruled it was self defence

Where a man can hide and never be found

And have no fear of the baying hounds

But he better keep on movin' and don't stand still

If the skeeters don't get him in Gatesville

The skeeters don't get him in the Gatesville

The skeeters don't get him in the Gatesville

The skeeters don't get him in the Gatesville
