I had a hard run
Running from your window
I was all night running, running
I wonder if you care?
I had a run-in
Run around and run down
Run around a corner
Run smack into a tree
I had to move
Really had to move
Thats why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, dont you come around here anymore
Dressed myself in green, green
I went down under the sea
Try to see whats going down
Try to read between the lines
Had a feeling I was falling
I turned around to see
Heard a voice a-calling, calling
You was running back to me
I had to move
Really had to move
Thats why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, dont you come around here anymore
Ran into a rainstorm
Ducked back into a bar door
It was all night pouring
But not a drop on me, not on me
Test me, test me, test me, test me
Why dont you arrest me?
Throw me in the jail house
Lord, until the sun goes down
I had to move
Really had to move
Thats why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, dont you come around here anymore
I had to move
Really had to move
Thats why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, dont you come around here anymore
I had to move
Really had to move
Thats why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, dont you come around here anymore
I had to move
Really had to move
Thats why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, dont you come around here anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
