To me-& I expect this is true with other writers-I have close relationships with my songs. When I write a song, most of the time they are a deep expression of something happening in my life-or inspired so deeply through someone else that the words pour out without hesitation.
This song "Run Boys Run" is from my latest album "Buckaroogirl" and is probably my favorite...
I don't know if it's the fact that the lyrics "live-out" my intense need for freedom or if the rhythm & melody based on the trotting of a good cow pony makes me smile....
From what I've been hearing-it's one of my listeners favorites too! And hearing all the reasons that YOU love it just makes my day!
As it has been requested on FB and this new blog here at blogger.com...I will be posting lyrics from all three of my albums, "Highway 80" "Boots & Pearls" & "Buckaroogirl."
Enjoy, & if you have any questions, or would like tabs-chords-ect, please let me know.
There is nothing I love more than a good chat & sharing music!
xoxo

Run boys run
Lyrics & Music by Adrian Brannan
I pull on cold Levi’s from the day before
Tall cuffs and coffee underslungs slug low
Two braids in front and my heart on the line
Ian must have sang of one true love
Sometime
A man like that just couldn’t be bought
I blindfold a bronc then step aboard
This life of wandering and life of cold
Seems to keep me from thinking bought all the things we
shouldn’t be
And I sang fall-de-rall-de run boys run
I’m running from a true love
And I can’t see
The way that you think it should be
And I sang fall-de-rall-de run boys run I’m
Running from a true love
And I can’t see
The way that you said it should be
Without you
Without me
So fall-de-rall-de run boys run
Its too late to run when you’re already gone
Too far out and too far gone
Night’s spent
With cooks and kings has been’s
Never-were’s and
Already seen’s
You could have spared the feeling of walking away
Soared me the thought
Of having to say
Just a little while I’m gonna chase this dream
Now you’re lost and alone
And ive taken wing
And I sang fall-de-rall-de run boys run
I’m running from a true love
And I cant see
The way that you think it should be
And I sang fall-de-rall-de run boys run I’m
Running from a true love
And I can’t see
The way that you said it should be
Without you
Without me
So fall-de-rall-de run boys
And run like you’re running from the law
And fall like youre falling for me now
But Im drifting away and no matter what I say
A heart can only bend so much
Before it must choose
Im mine
And you’re yours
Except when it was us
But I can’t be bought
And im choosing the road
And I sang fall-de-rall-de run boys run
Im running from a true love
And I cant see
The way that you think it should be
And I sang fall-de-rall-de run boys run im
Running from a true love
And I can’t see
The way that you said it should be
Without you
Without me
So fall-de-rall-de run boys
I pull on cold levi’s from the day before
Tall cuffs and coffee
Underslungs slung low
Two braids in front
And my heart on the line
Ian must have sang of one true love
Sometime
