Well, i've been stepped on, baby,

By people i thought were my friends.

I tried so hard to make it.

But the bad times never end.

I got just one thing now, baby,

One thing on my mind.

Gonna pack it up, little darlin'.

And leave you far behind.





Chorus:

I'll be running.

Yes, 'll be running down the line.



Well, i've beeen locked up, oh yes,

They threw away the key,

When i need you then bad, woman.

You ran up and ran out on me.

I just got one thing now, baby.

One thing on my mind,

Gotta pack it up little darlin'.

Ain't no use in crying.





Chorus:

I'll be running,

Yes, i'll be running down the line.



Lead guitar and harp break



Yea, life was so sweet, little baby,

Now i've got my doubts.

I don't remember checking in,

But i'm soon to check out.

Got just one thing now, baby,

One thing on my mind,

Gonna pack it up, mama,

This time i ain't lying.





Chorus:

I'll be running,

Yes, i'll be running, on down the line.

I'll be running,

Yes, i'll be running, on down the line.
