The Long Run
In the long run, I will let you down
In the long run, I will let you down
Pretty soon now, I won't be around
Pretty soon now, I'm getting out of town
If you're tongue tied, I'll be in your mouth
When you're tongue tied, I'll be in your mouth
Oh, and love can tie you down,
If you show your wrists
And love can shake you out
Of the tree you're in
And love can patch you up,
If you've got holes
And love can be what you call home
When your mind's made up,
You won't budge a bit
When my mind's made up,
I will follow it
If the winds rise,
I'll be heading down south
When the winds rise,
Oregon's got a mouth
Put your shoes on,
Tread your trail with haste
Put your coat on,
Got no heat to waste
Oh, and love can tie you down,
If you show your wrists
And love can shake you out
Of the tree you're in
And love can patch you up,
If you've got holes
And love can be what you call home
Oh, and love can tie you down,
If you show your wrists
And love can shake out
Of the tree you're in
And love can patch you up,
If you've got holes
And love can be what you call home
What you call home
In the long run, I will let you down
In the long run, I don't wanna let you down
