Bertha Lyrics

I had a hard run, running from your window I was all night running, running; lord, I wonder if you care I had a run-in, run around and a run down Run around a corner, corner, lord, I run smack into a tree I had to move, really had to move That's why, if you please, I am on my bended knees Bertha don't you come around here anymore Dressed myself in green, lord I went down to the sea Try to see what's going down, maybe read between the lines Had a feeling I was falling, falling, falling, lord I turned around to see Heard a voice calling, calling, calling, you was comin' after me back to me I had to move, really had to move That's why, if you please, I am on my bended knees Bertha don't you come around here anymore Ran into a rainstorm, ducked into a bar door It was all night pouring, pouring rain, but not a drop on me Test me, test me, test me, test me, why don't you arrest me? Throw me in the jail house, until the sun goes down, 'til it go down I had to move, really had to move That's why, if you please, I am on my bended knees Bertha don't you come around here anymore I had to move, really had to move That's why, if you please, I am on my bended knees Bertha don't you come around here anymore I had to move, really had to move That's why, if you please, I am on my bended knees Bertha don't you come around here anymore I had to move, really had to move That's why, if you please, I am on my bended knees Bertha don't you come around here anymore Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
