Bertha

I had a hard run, runnin from your window
I was all night running, running, Lord, I wonder if you care
I had a run in, run around and run down
Run around the corner, corner, Lord, run smack in to a tree
I had to move, really had to move
Thats why if you please, I am on my bendin knees
Bertha, dont you come around here anymore
Dressed myself in green, I went down unto the sea
Try to see whats goin down, try to read between the lines
I had a feelin I was fallin, fallin, fallin, I turned around to see
Heard a voice al callin, Lord, you was comin after me
I had to move, really had to move
Thats why if you please, I am on my bendin knees
Bertha, dont you come around here anymore
Ran into a rainstorm, I ducked back into a bar door
Its all night pourin, pourin, pourin, Lord, but not a drop on me
Test me, test me, test me, test me, test me
Why dont you arrest me? Throw me in to the jail house
Lord, until the sun goes down, til it goes down
I had to move, really had to move
Thats why if you please, I am on my bendin knees
Bertha, dont you come around here anymore
I had to move, really had to move
Thats why if you please, I am on my bendin knees ,
Bertha, dont you come around here anymore
