Tom T. Hall - Fox On The Run lyrics

[Chorus:] She walks through the corn leadin' 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 [Verse 1:] Now everybody knows the reason for my fall A woman tempted me down in paradise hall This woman tempted me and she took me for a ride Like a lonely fox, boys, I need a place to hide [Chorus] [Verse 2:] Oh, we'll drink a gla** of wine, boys, to purify our soul We'll talk about the world and the friends we used to know I see a string of girls who have put me on before The game is nearly over and the hounds are at the door [Chorus]
