[Verse 1]

I am running and running as fast as I can go

I am running and running from all the things I know

Well I had to leave it somewhere so I left it far behind

I had to get away from all the trouble I might find

[Chorus]

Run to the river, run to the sea

Run from the evil that's been calling you and me

If we keep rolling right out of town

We’ll reach the Promised Land before they tear it down

[Verse 2]

Well I am running and running just like a fast mail train

Running and running and I won't be back again

Nobody ever told me I'd be ridin’ on the blind

Well the rumble and the rattle seems to ease my worried mind

[Chorus]

Run to the river‚ run to the sea

Run from the evil that's been calling you and me

If we keep rolling right out of town

We'll reach the Promised Land before they tear it down

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

Run to the river‚ run to the sea

Run from the evil that's been calling you and me

If we keep rolling right out of town

We'll reach the Promised Land before they tear it down
