Well, I've been stepped on, baby,
By people I thought were my friends
I tried so hard to make it
But the bad times never end
I got just one thing now, baby,
One thing on my mind
Gonna pack it up, little darlin'
And leave you far behind

Chorus:
I'll be running
Yes, 'll be running down the line

Well, I've beeen locked up, oh yes,
They threw away the key,
When I need you then bad, woman
You ran up and ran out on me
I just got one thing now, baby
One thing on my mind,
Gotta pack it up little darlin'
Ain't no use in crying

Chorus:
I'll be running,
Yes, I'll be running down the line

LEAD GUITAR AND HARP BREAK

Yea, life was so sweet, little baby,
Now I've got my doubts
I don't remember checking in,
But I'm soon to check out
Got just one thing now, baby,
One thing on my mind,
Gonna pack it up, mama,
This time I ain't lying

Chorus:
I'll be running,
Yes, I'll be running, on down the line
I'll be running,
Yes, I'll be running, on down the line
