I got myself in trouble, I'm runnin' from the law

'Cause 'e thinks I tip the scales

This boy he's kinda jealous, he makes me toe the line

He wants me in his jail



I'm runnin', runnin'..

Runnin' from his love...

I'm runnin', I'm runnin'..

Runnin' from his love...



He says that I am guilty, the evidence is clear

It's plain for all to see

The Crown is very simple, I broke 'is heart in two

It's murder in the first degree..



I'm runnin', runnin'..

Runnin' from his love...

I'm runnin', runnin'..

Runnin' from his love...



He knows he's judge 'n' jury, he's gonna make me pay

I know that I can't win

Insanity is what I plead he's gotta let me go

I promise, I won't sin, again...



I'm runnin', runnin'..

Runnin' from his love...

I'm runnin', runnin'..

Runnin' from his love...



I couldn't serve the sentence, or wear the ball an' chain

I'm a young girl in my prime

I know that when 'e finds me, he'll wanna give me life

But I can't do that much time



I'm runnin', runnin'..

Runnin' from his love...

I'm runnin', runnin'..

Runnin' from his love...



I'm runnin', runnin'..

Runnin' from his love...

I'm runnin', runnin'.., from.., his.., love...
