She walks through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love that poor boy could give her
And left me to die like a fox on the run
Like a fox on the run
Now everybody knows, the reason for my fall
When a woman tempted down in paradise's hall
That woman tempted me, and took me for a ride
Now like a lonely fox, boys, I need a place to hide
She walks through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love that poor boy could give her
And left me to die like a fox on the run
Like a fox on the run
I'll drink a glass of wine, and purify my soul
I'll think about the world, and the friends I used to know
I see a string of girls, who've put me on before
The game is nearly over and the hounds are at my door
