Manuela Run
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't look now, you better watch that sword that's hanging over you
It's a long hard road and they will spit you out
When they get through with you
Don't hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy you'll soon be dead
Chorus:
You better run, run Manuela-uela run
They're gonna shoot you in the back with your own gun
You better run, run Manuela-uela run, Manuela run
There's no more time for living out your life, your sky is falling down
Don't close your eyes or make a wish on three
'Cause they will still be 'round
Don't hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy you'll soon be dead
Chorus:
(Instrumental break)
Don't hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy you'll soon be dead
You better run, run Manuela-uela run, you better run, run Manuela-uela run
You better run, run Manuela-uela run
(gonna shoot you in the back with your own gun)
You better run, run Manuela-uela run, you better run, run Manuela run
You better run, run Manuela run
(gonna shoot you in the back with your own gun)
You better run, run Manuela run
