The Ballad of Maddie Rice
She's runnin' down the mountain
She's runnin' from her home
She's runnin' down the mountain
She's headed for the road
She's runnin' down the mountain
She's runnin' on her toes
She's runnin' on, runnin' on
He pushed and shoved and beat her down
Now she's leavin' like she should
He pushed and shoved and beat her down
Now she's leavin' him for good
He pushed and shoved and beat her down
But up to him she stood by runnin' on, runnin' on
With a baby in her belly
The goin' will be hard
With a baby in her belly
She can't get very far
With a baby in her belly and another one in her arms
She's runnin' on, runnin' on
She figures she can wait it out
Cause the sheriff is her Pa
She figures she can wait it out
Now that the sheriff's on the draw
She figures she can wait it out cause he can't outrun the law
They're runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin' on, runnin' on
Two fingers on two triggers
They made it to the hill
Two fingers on two triggers
Then everything was still
Two fingers on two triggers and all their blood was spilled
And runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin', Runnin', Runnin' on
Runnin' on
One baby made it out alive
She never went back home
One baby made it out alive
Now she's got children of her own
One baby made it out alive
She's thankful for her Ma for runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin' on, runnin' on
She's runnin' from her home
She's runnin' down the mountain
She's headed for the road
She's runnin' down the mountain
She's runnin' on her toes
She's runnin' on, runnin' on
He pushed and shoved and beat her down
Now she's leavin' like she should
He pushed and shoved and beat her down
Now she's leavin' him for good
He pushed and shoved and beat her down
But up to him she stood by runnin' on, runnin' on
With a baby in her belly
The goin' will be hard
With a baby in her belly
She can't get very far
With a baby in her belly and another one in her arms
She's runnin' on, runnin' on
She figures she can wait it out
Cause the sheriff is her Pa
She figures she can wait it out
Now that the sheriff's on the draw
She figures she can wait it out cause he can't outrun the law
They're runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin' on, runnin' on
Two fingers on two triggers
They made it to the hill
Two fingers on two triggers
Then everything was still
Two fingers on two triggers and all their blood was spilled
And runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin', Runnin', Runnin' on
Runnin' on
One baby made it out alive
She never went back home
One baby made it out alive
Now she's got children of her own
One baby made it out alive
She's thankful for her Ma for runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin' on, runnin' on
Runnin' on, runnin' on
