Never Look Back

Patrick Cannell © 2021
Off at the shot of a gun,
Run run rabbit rabbit run.
Hide from the glare of the Sun,
Don't let the farmer have his fun.

Don't spend all your time in a warren,
Be brave when the scenery's foreign.
Draw a line and never cross over.
Never look back.

Counting the rails in a fence,
Henceforth from hither to hence.
Sleep with an eye on the door,
Wondering what you're running for.

Don't spend all your time as a fugitive.
Complacency is a sedative.
Draw a line and never cross over.
Never look back.

You will never be caught, the manhunt's never over.
One thing you should be taught, nobody ever escapes.

Sleep with your hand on a gun,
Wondering what you're running from.

Don't spend all your time as a fugitive.
Complacency is a sedative.
Draw a line and never cross over.
Never look back.
