I stood out on the trestle waitin' for the whistle The 409 was right on time again Lord, I'd a-got a lickin' if they caught me playin' chicken But I was quite the practiced liar way back then I saw the smoke above the treetops And when the train came into view I stood still as a statue, but I knew what to do When I could read the numbers on the front I'd run like a gypsy, like the hounds of hell'd get me Like a rabbit on the wrong end of a gun I'd run like the lightning cuttin' 'cross the Kansas skyline Like the tears that momma cried for her lost son I'd run, yeah, I'd run I got older but no smarter an' cheatin' fate got harder But I could still out wit the Devil and his friends Went through whiskey, cards an' women, takin' more than I was givin' Throwin' love and caution to wind Every time I'd let some beauty get a little too close to me She'd hang around just long enough to find herself the key When I could feel the lock on my heart come undone I'd run like a gypsy, like the hounds of hell'd get me Like a rabbit on the wrong end of a gun I'd run like the lightning cuttin' 'cross the Kansas skyline Like the tears that momma cried for her lost son I'd run, yeah, I'd run There's broken hearts and broken bottles Dreams all gone to dust Girls gone home to momma and cars all gone to rust If I could go back and undo the hurt I'd done I'd run like a gypsy, like the hounds of hell'd get me Like the rabbit on the wrong end of a gun I'd run like the lightning cuttin' 'cross the Kansas skyline Like the tears that momma cried for her lost son I'd run, yeah, I'd run, you know I'd run, yeah I'd run
