I'm A Lonesome Fugitive
I'm A Lonesome Fugitive
By Merle Haggard
CFG7
Down every road there's always one more city
FG7C
I'm on the run the highway is my home
FG7
I raised a lot of cane back in my younger days
FG7C
While Mama used to pray my crops would fail
FG7
Now I'm a hunted fugitive with just two ways
FG7C
Outrun the law or spend my life in jail
FG7
I'd like to settle down but they won't let me
FG7
A fugitive must be a rolling stone
CFG7
Down every road there's always one more city
FG7C
I'm on the run the highway is my home
FG7
I'm lonely but I can't afford the luxury
FG7C
Of having one I love to come along
FG7
She'd only slow me down and they'd catch up with me
FG7C
For he who travels fastest goes alone

FG7C
I'm on the run the highway is my home
