Fox On The Run

written by Tony Hazzard

(Chorus)

She walks through the corn leading down to the river

Her hair shone like gold in the hot mornin' sun

She took all the love that a 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

Out here everybody knows the reason for the fall

When woman tempted me down in paradise hall

This woman tempted me then she took me for a ride

But like a lonely fox, boys I need a place to hide

(repeat chorus)

We'll drink a glass of wine boys to fortify our souls

We'll talk about the world and friends we used to know

I see a string of girls who have put me on the floor

The game is nearly over and the hounds are at my door

(repeat chorus)
