Run

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, I'm the one he's gonna want

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, I'm the one he's gonna want

I went down to the river that day

Saw my man go and walk away

He left town with a woman I know

With raven hair and skin like snow

Left two kids in the house on the hill

But just one glance and I was cold like steel

I knew then I would lose my mind

If that young girl let him cross that line

So I'll run further than the memory

I'll run to somewhere they can't get me

You won't be the last one standing, I'm the one he's gonna want, oh

And you'll run further from the memory

You'll run to somewhere they can't get me

I will be the last one standing, I'm the one he's gonna want, oh

I knew then what I did was wrong

But daddy taught me that I'm not that strong

Guilt comes up so I push it down

But I love him, so I'll wear that crown

So please Lord, forgive my sins

I hope Heaven still lets me in

'Cause when I went down to the river that day

I didn't know things would go this way

So I'll run further than the memory

I'll run to somewhere they can't get me

You won't be the last one standing, I'm the one he's gonna want, oh

And you'll run further from the memory

You'll run to somewhere they can't get me

I will be the last one standing, I'm the one he's gonna want, oh

Na-na, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, I'm the one he's gonna want

Oh-oh-na-na, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, I'm the one he's gonna want

I can't help that I fell in love

The damage is done and I've had enough

'Cause people 'round here, they talk too much

But I was just a girl when I fell in love

So I'll run further than the memory

I'll run to somewhere they can't get me

You won't be the last one standing, I'm the one he's gonna want, oh

And you'll run further from the memory

You'll run to somewhere they can't get me

I will be the last one standing, I'm the one he's gonna want, oh
