Run, Little Bird

Intro Run, little bird

Verse 1 You took the back porch and the creek You took the cousin and the tin You left the porch light on for me You left the screen door swinging in

Pre-Chorus I taught you Psalms I taught you how to wait I taught you who to fear I taught you who to hate

Chorus Run, little bird, run, little bird Don't look at the highway, don't say a word Daddy's got the truck and the radio scan Run, little bird, while you still can

Verse 2 The hounds know the smell of your blanket The deacon knows the make of your shoes The state line don't know your face yet The Greyhound don't know the news

Pre-Chorus I taught you Psalms I taught you how to wait I taught you who to fear I taught you who to hate

Chorus Run, little bird, run, little bird Don't look at the highway, don't say a word Daddy's got the truck and the radio scan Run, little bird, while you still can

Bridge You learned to fly from the kitchen window You learned to land in the neighbor's yard You learned to bleed without making sound You learned the hard way, little bird Run, little bird, run, little bird Don't look at the highway, don't say a word Daddy's got the truck and the radio scan Run, little bird, while you still can
