The Runner Lyrics

Hard times as we go
We know what times will change
I talked to Jesus
Jesus says I'm okay

Pushin' and jumpin'
Jumpin' the mountain range
And in a railroad
Railroad from Hell to Maine

While she says she's on her own
I'll be pacin' on the phone
Sneakin' on the train come back

Awful sick and tired of the gang
She comes from nothing
Hopin' for a taste of fame
She's got a birthmark
A birthmark the shape of Maine

While she says she's on her own
I'll be pacin' on the phone
Sneakin' on the train come back

Awful sick and tired of the gang
And it's cold and it's cold and it's cold when you're near
Cold when you're near any bottle
Cold and it's cold and it's cold when you're near
Cold when you're near any bottle

Hard times as we go
We know where times will change
I talk to Jesus
Jesus everyday

(Hard times as we go)
