She's on a Greyhound bus to Alabama
Tear in her eye, looking out the window
Thinking 'bout all the life she has before her
Trying her best not to think about what she left at home
She's gonna run, run, run
When times get rough
She's gonna run, run, run
Like she ain't run enough
She's gonna run right out of town
And when she's done burning it down
She's gonna run
Back to me like she always does
Sitting in a worn-out chair at the kitchen table
Acting like I don't care, but staring at the telephone
I'd surely give her up if I was able
But she's got the "gotta have" that I can't leave alone
She's gonna run, run, run
When times get rough
She's gonna run, run, run
Like she ain't run enough
She's gonna run right out of town
And when she's done burning it down
She's gonna run
Back to me like she always does
She's gonna run, run, run
When times get rough
She's gonna run, run, run
Like she ain't run enough
She's gonna run right out of town
And when she's done burning it down
She's gonna run
Back to me like she always does
Whoa, she's gonna run, run, run
When times get rough
She's gonna run, run, run
Like she ain't run enough
She's gonna run right out of town
And when she's done burning it down
She's gonna run
Back to me like she always does
She's gonna run back to me like she always does
