An innocent man
Is all that it takes
They said they want justice
It's an easy mistake
They said do unto others
An eye for an eye
The jury cried guilty
And I've been running all my life
I was born on muddy water
On the wrong side of the law
I'll take my chance behind a gun
I'll tell you one thing for sure
I ain't gonna run no more
Ain't gonna run no more
They got the devil on their conscience
They got blood on their hands
They tried and convicted
An innocent man
I'm gonna die by the bullet
This I can tell
'Cos they said they want justice
And I'll see them in hell
I was born on muddy water
On the wrong side of the law
I'll take my chance behind a gun
I'll tell you one thing for sure
I ain't gonna run no more
Ain't gonna run no more
Ain't gonna run no more
Oh I was born on muddy water
On the wrong side of the law
I'll take my chance behind a gun
I'll tell you one thing for sure
I was born on muddy water
On the wrong side of the law
I'll take my chance behind a gun
I'll tell you one thing for sure
I ain't gonna run no more
Ain't gonna run no more
I've been running all my life
You ain't gonna take me alive
