Merle Haggard
The Running Kind
I was born the running kind, leaving always on my mind
Home was never home to me at anytime
Every front door found me open I would find the back door open
There just had to be an exit for the running kind
Within me there's a prison, surrounding me alone
As real as any dungeon with its walls of stone
I know running's not the answer, but running's been my nature
And the thing in me that keeps me moving on
I was born the running kind, leaving always on my mind
Home was never home to me at anytime
Every front door found me open I would find the back door open
There just had to be an exit for the running kind
