Stoney LaRue - Idabel Blues lyrics

Running hard and running fast Trying to get away Going to the bayou Where no one knows my name No one knows my name Chorus Won't you hide me Pa Fore the Red River is my grave Won't you hide me Pa Fore the Red River is my grave Had a job real good pay Watching summers crop Made a hundred bucks a day Guarding those big tops Guarding those green tops Chorus August night up real high Rifle in my hand Whiskey drinks, forty winks They cleared my buddy's land Cleared my buddy's land Chorus Spent my time in Idabel Just trying to get ahead Friends I've known all my life Are wishing I was dead Wishing I was dead Chorus Running hard, running fast Trying to get away Going to the bayou Where no one knows my name No one knows my name Chorus
