Lyric Bertha

I had a hard run, runnin from your window.
I was all night running, running, Lord I wonder if you care,
I had a run in, run around, and run down.
Run around the corner, corner, Lord run smack in to a tree.

I had to move, really had to move,
That s why if you please, I am on my bendin knees,
Bertha don t you come around here anymore.

Dressed myself in green, I went down unto the sea.
Try to see what s goin down, try to read between the lines.
I had a feelin I was fallin , fallin , fallin ,
I turned around to see,
Heard a voice al callin , Lord you was comin after me.

I had to move, really had to move,
That s why if you please, I am on my bendin knees,
Bertha don t you come around here anymore.

Ran into a rainstorm, I ducked back into Novato.
It s all night pourin , pourin , pourin ,
Lord but not a drop on me.
Test me, test me,
Test me, test me, test me,
Why don t you arrest me?
Throw me in to the jailhouse,
Lord until the sun goes down, till it goes down.

I had to move, really had to move,
That s why if you please, I am on my bendin knees,
Bertha don t you come around here anymore.

I had to move, really had to move,
That s why if you please, I am on my bendin knees,
Bertha don t you come around here anymore.
