Oh my soul I wanted to save
Got rounded up
In a revival crusade
Priestly pedophiles
Proudly misbehaved
Bald head bishops covered up
The innocent kids the priests laid
From this spiritual bondage run away
Testify on judgement day
Run away…

Run away slave!!!
Catch me the early grave
Run away slave…
Running like a Cherokee brave!
Heart pumping to fail
Hear the blood hounds
On my trail

Why oh why
Oh why can’t you stop and stay
Why oh why
Oh why…oh no…
I’m just a run away

Town to town camped out in caves
Wet with the morning dew
Absolutely no shave
The fresh out doors
My road was paved
Life of luxury I gladly waved
From this spiritual
Bondage!…Run away!
Testify on judgement day
Run away…

Run away slave!!!
Catch me the early grave
Run away slave…
Running like a Cherokee brave!
Heart pumping to fail
Hear the blood hounds
On my trail

Gimme little water got cotton mouth
I’m thirsty
Gimme little water
It’s my time to die

Why oh why
Oh why can’t you stop stay
Why oh why
Oh why…oh no…
I’m just a run away

Run away slave!!!
Catch me the early grave
Run away slave…
Running like a Cherokee brave!
