Lyrics
They're going to punish me for something that I didn't do
I didn't know her before today
Now I walk across the sand
And I sail across the sea
As long as they are after me
But I've got to be free
With their horses and their guns
They've got this man on the run
But what I have done remains a mystery to me
They're going to punish me for something that I didn't do
I was a fool to feel this way
Now I curse the day we met
'Cause I'm looking over my shoulder
Always running for cover
I just can't find any shelter
Now there's nothing left to say
And there's nothing more I can do
I believed her when she told me that she loved me too
They're going to punish me for something that I didn't do
I didn't know her before today
Now I walk across the sand
And I sail across the sea
They've got their nooses ready
Hanging underneath a tree
With their horses and their guns
They've got this man on the run
But what I have done remains a mystery to me
They're going to punish me for something that I didn't do
