Beat the Morning Light

I've got the pedal on the floorboard
Fingers grip the wheel tight
There ain't no cars behind us
I push her on to beat the morning light
No I never would have done it
No I never would agree
If I knew then what I know now
There ain't no running from your memory
We ain't turning back now
Have to live with what we done
Just keep on rolling forward
Learn to accept we live now on the run
Driving through the night
Stay off the road at day
Park down by the river
And hide away oh dear Lord I pray
Running from our past
No use now to right a wrong
I don't know what lies ahead Lord
But I feel it won't be long and we're rolling on
I'm sure they're on our trail now
I'm sure they're mad as hell
And you know if they catch us
Those sons of bitches they ain't taking us to jail
Full moon shining bright now
It's so clear and I can breathe
Soon as we hit the hardtop
I'll drop her down and set these horses free
I think we're in the clear now
I think we'll be alright
We can all rest easy
Just as long as we beat the morning light
Just as long as we beat the morning light
