Manfred Mann`s Earth Band Fox On The Run Lyrics

Fox On The Run Lyrics

She walked through the corn leading down to the river, 

her hair shone
like gold in the hot morning sun.

She took all the love that a poor boy
could give her, 

and left me to die like the fox on the run.



Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run.



Everybody
knows the reason for the fall, 

when woman tempted man down in paradise's
hall.

This woman tempted me, oh yes, then took me for a ride 

but
like the lonely fox I need a place to hide.



Like the fox (like the
fox, like the fox) on the run.



Come take a glass of wine and
fortify your soul, 

we'll talk about the world and friends we used to
know.

I'll illustrate a girl who put me on the floor. 

The game is
nearly up, the hounds are at my door.



Like the fox (like the fox,
like the fox) on the run.
