Run Ricky Run Lyrics

In the middle of the night that's the best time to shine

When sissy and momma's gone to sleep

With darkness all around the cicadas don't make a sound

But something in his gut just don't feel right

Run Ricky Run

The laws coming after you

Shining got you being a wanted man

Run Ricky Run

Out run the sun

Come on boys go catch him if you can

Ain't a star out in sight but the lanterns glow tonight

This could be Ricky's last run

Better get up past to Boulder

If the sun rises, it's over

Gotta get there before the morning light

Out manned and out gunned Ole Ricky's on the run

But no one knows these hollers like he does

In his souped up thirty-five around them hills he flies

Boys better luck catchin' him next time
