You hear the hounds awailin'
|
As if the mountains groan
|
You hear the lonesome echo, the telltale clack of stones
|
You thought you'd get away, but you're never quite alone
|
You hear the hiss of rattler, maracas on his tail
|
You hear the lion replyin' to the stalker on your trail
|
|
One step ahead of the devil one step
|
One step ahead of the man one step
|
You're one step ahead of evil
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
|
One step ahead of the devil one step
|
One step ahead of the man one step
|
You're one step ahead of evil
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
|
You hear the darkness weeping
|
For those who fall tonight
|
That night you lay beside her, for once you almost slept
|
Until her slim blade glimmered near got you 'fore you leapt
|
Wish you could leave her livin but that's like guns and rust
|
You don't want it on your gun, it's just like you and trust
|
|
One step ahead of the devil one step
|
One step ahead of the man one step
|
You're one step ahead of evil
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
|
One step ahead of the devil one step
|
One step ahead of the man one step
|
You're one step ahead of evil
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
|
Somewhere, there's a refuge
|
Somewhere, a place to rest
|
Somewhere, there's a lover
|
Someday you'll pass the test
|
|
One step ahead of the devil one step
|
One step ahead of the man one step
|
You're one step ahead of evil
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
|
One step ahead of the devil one step
|
One step ahead of the man one step
|
You're one step ahead of evil
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
And you can only run as far as you can
|
