Fox on the Run - The Manfred Mann/The Country Gentlemen/Emerson and Waldron/Tom T. Hall

  
  
Fox on the Run
She walked through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love that her poor boy could give her
And left me to die like a fox on the run

Like a fox
Like a fox
Like a fox on the run

Everybody knows the reason for the barn
When woman kept denying down this paradise as home
This woman temted me, oh, yeah, and took me for a ride
And like a weary fox, I need a place to hide

She walked through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love that her poor boy could give her
And left me to die like a fox on the run

Like a fox
Like a fox
Like a fox on the run

Oh, take a glass of wine and fortify your soul
We'll talk about the world and friends we used to know
I'm illustrated, girl, you put me on the floor
The game is nearly up, the hounds are at my door

I saw her walk through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love that her poor boy could give her
And left me to die like a fox on the run

You know she walked through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love that her poor boy could give her
And left me to die
Like a fox, like a fox, like a fox on the run
