She had a white wedding one hundred guests and a four piece band But she's as sad as Sunday the groom's as cold as a snowman's hand But out of nowhere, came her saviour Down the aisle comes Johnny from the promised land
As long as we keep on running they'll never catch me As long as we keep on running honey, we'll stay free
In an old motel they fell asleep after driving thru the nite The word's gone out on the citizen's cands Her daddy has put a price on Johnny's life But out of danger deep in Texas she found heaven Hanging' onto Johnny's hand
As long as we keep on running they'll never catch me As long as we keep on running honey, we'll stay free
And if you break away I can give you a fast car going west Ain't got a lot o' time just 24 hours of happiness But if you wake one day and hear my voice on a cool breeze blowin' south Remember you and me living our life in 24 hours
Soon enough they'll track us down Time runs out for freedom in the end Well it's bars for me and the bride to be In her daddy's caddy Abducted from the promised land
As long as we keep on running they'll never catch me As long as we keep on running honey, we'll stay free
As long as we keep on running they'll never catch me As long as we keep on running honey, we'll stay free
