Intro (2x) (4x) verse 1 Johnny loved his daddy's gun He loved the farmer's daughter She loved the sheriff's only son But loved what Johnny bought her She met the sheriff's joy and pride They met in darkness, late While Johnny met his darker side And they all would meet their fate Running, but he's not a coward Always hiding from his crime A step away from being devoured Just a victim of his time He runs the night, his gun a blazing He knows the sheriff won't forgive Hell bent on hell raising He'll live or die a fugitive verse 2 She wore a dress that Johnny bought She wore it for the son The son, he wore a yellow spot And Johnny wore a gun The sheriff's son turned pale with fright He turned tail and fled Johnny's gun turned out his light And turned his yellow red Running, but he's not a coward Always hiding from his crime A step away from being devoured Just a victim of his time He runs the night, his gun a blazing He knows the sheriff won't forgive Hell bent on hell raising He'll live or die a fugitive
