Nowhere To Run Lyrics

Damn cold that winter

Busted out and I was free

Doing time in Cook County

For murder and robbery

Headed south across that river

Knocking on mama's trailer door

She said boy your a sinner

I can't help you anymore

Called a friend who owe'd me one

Sheriff's hot on my trail

I need a car

I need a gun

I Ain't going back to jail

Filled up and robbed a seven-11

Doing what I got to be free

Heading south on I-57

Ain't stopping till I hit E

Made it down to Kentucky

Five miles from Tennessee

Running low on Cocaine

Shacked up and fell asleep

When I woke in the morning

10 guns calling me

Got nowhere to run boy

Hands where my eyes can see

Thinking about my woman

And my baby boy

The kind of life I could give em

Doing life behind those walls

Holding their picture in my left hand

A pistol in my right

Closed my eyes for the last time

And I made up my mind
