Running Blind - H

At a quick shop somewhere west of Albuquerque

Got a tank of gas and a cold drink and a beef jerky

The cashier she gave me a smile

So I stood there and I talk to her a while

She said where you headed I hope you get there soon

I’ve seen em all day long from 4am till noon

Some are running from

Some are running too

Some are running blind

Lord

Which one are you

I said it don’t appear to me to be so cut and dry

You don’t know me from Adam

Can it be so black and white

I said I got a plan you see I got it figured out

How can you be so sure my dear what I’m all about

She said Ive stood in this window for 27 years

I can tell your cash or credit

I can tell your brand of beer

I can tell you who’s a liar

And the truth is plain to see

That’s your last twenty boy

And don’t you lie to me

Their’s a girl

In Albuquerque crying (ain't she)

And your standing in a quick shop

Lying…(Ain't ya)

Well

She handed back my twenty

Said you know what to do

If you drive it steady son

You’ll be home this afternoon

And I hate to judge you

I don’t mean to seem unkind

But there ain’t no use in running

If you’re only running blind

Oh their ain’t no use in running…

If you’re only running blind…
