What you gonna do when they come for
your old man and they come for
your best friend and they come for you?
Then you better run, run away
run down the alley up away.
Smoke your cigarettes drink your brew.
(You'd better) Run, run away,
you got to run away
run, run away
but you'll never get away.
You gotta get away
You gotta get away
You gotta get away, for salvation.
What you gonna do when they ask your
mamma where'd you go and they ask your
sister where'd you go and they just don't know?
Then, you better duck in the bush,
hiding with your papers and a pistol,
waiting for the man, then a come run joe
(You'd better) Run, run away,
you got to run away
run, run away
but you'll never get away.
You gotta get away
You gotta get away
You gotta get away, for salvation.
