Karaoké Can You Run The SteelDrivers

There's smoke down by the river

Hear the cannon and the drums

I've got one thing to ask you honey

Can you run

You know I hate to ask so late but the moment's finally come

And there won't be time to change your mind

Can you run

Can you run to the freedom line of the Lincoln soldiers

Where the contraband can be a man with a musket on his shoulder

I've got to stand up tall before I'm done

Wrap these hands of mine around a gun

And chase the taste of bondage from my tongue

Can you run

Can you run

I'm takin' nothin' with me

We've just got time to beat the sun

And the boys in gray are never far away

Can you run

Can you run to the freedom line of the Lincoln soldiers

Where the contraband can be a man with a musket on his shoulder

I've got to stand up tall before I'm done

Wrap these hands of mine around a gun

And chase the taste of bondage from my tongue

Can you run

Can you run

There's smoke down by the river

Hear the cannon and the drums

And even if I die

I've got to try

Can you run

Can you run to the freedom line of the Lincoln soldiers

Where the contraband can be a man with a musket on his shoulder

I've got to stand up tall before I'm done

Wrap these hands of mine around a gun

And chase the taste of bondage from my tongue

Can you run

Can you run

Can you run

Can you run
