Admiration

They're going to punish me for something that I didn't do

I didn't know her before today

Now I walk across the sand

And I sail across the sea

As long as they are after me

But I've got to be free

With their horses and their guns

They've got this man on the run

But what I have done remains a mystery to me

They're going to punish me for something that I didn't do

I was a fool to feel this way

Now I curse the day we met

'Cause I'm looking over my shoulder

Always running for cover

I just can't find any shelter

Now there's nothing left to say

And there's nothing more I can do

I believed her when she told me that she loved me too

They're going to punish me for something that I didn't do

I didn't know her before today

Now I walk across the sand

And I sail across the sea

They've got their nooses ready

Hanging underneath a tree

With their horses and their guns

They've got this man on the run

But what I have done remains a mystery to me

They're going to punish me for something that I didn't do
