Lyrics for Runnin' Blue

Poor Otis dead and gone Left me here to sing his song Pretty little girl with the red dress on Poor Otis dead and gone Yeah, back down, turn around slowly Try it again, rememberin' when It was easy, try it again Much to easy, rememberin' when All right, look at my shoes Not quite the walkin' blues Don't fight, too much to lose Can't fight the runnin' blues Well, I've got the runnin' blues Runnin' away, back to L.A. Got to find the dock in the bay Maybe find it back in L.A. Runnin' scared Runnin' blue Goin' so fast What'll I do? Well, I've got the runnin' blues Runnin' away, back to L.A. Got to find the dock in the bay Maybe find it back in L.A. All right, look at my shoes Not quite the walkin' blues Don't fight, too much to lose Can't fight the runnin' blues All right, look at my shoes Not quite the walkin' blues Don't fight, too much to lose Can't fight the runnin' blues
