Lightnin' Hopkins lyrics

Fugitive Blues blues lyrics

Yeah, they named me Richard Kimble,
Cause I been runnin so long.
Yeah, they named me Richard Kimble,
Cause I been runnin so long.
Yeah, you know they got me accused of murder,
When I ain't did no one wrong.

Got me accused of killing my wife,
I wouldn't harm a strand of hair in her head.
Got me accused of killing my wife,
Wouldn't harm a strand of hair in her head.
You know the set, I went home one evenin,
And found my wife was dead.
Yes, I did.

I'm gonna keep on runnin him,
Yes, until the sole of his shoe get thin.
I'm gonna keep on runnin him,
Yes, til the sole of his shoe get thin.
Yes, but when I catch that one old man,
I can go turn myself in.

Yeah, you know a man can't help but feel bad,
When he's always on the run.
Man can't help but feel bad,
When he's always on the run.
You know it make him feel so bad,
When it ain't anything he have done.
