I Can't Escape From You

I've tried and tried to run and hide To find a life that's new But wherever I go I always know I can't escape from you A jug of wine to numb my mind But what good does it do? The jug runs dry and still I cry I can't escape from you These wasted tears are souvenirs Of love, I thought was true Your memory is chained to me I can't escape from you There is no end, I can't pretend That dreams will soon come true A slave too long to a heart of stone I can't escape from you {This is Hank Williams speaking for all the boys And saying "If the good Lord's willin' And the creeps don't rise, we'll see you for long" And until then}
