Somewhere on a highway
Where the shimmer meets the sky
You’ll find a barefoot lady
A young child by her side
Running wild, running free
Many miles behind them
In a place they call home
They pray he’ll never find them
And he leaves them alone
Running wild

Later on that morning
A truck stops for a ride
The driver says “where you goin’?”
They say “we’re running wild
Running wild, running free
Running wild, running free
Many miles behind us
In a place we call home
We pray he’ll never find us
And he leaves us alone
Running wild, running free”
Running wild, running wild

The truck stops at a diner
Where they find something to eat
She reaches for her daughter, saying
“What’ll come o’ you an’ me?”
Running wild, running free
Running wild, running free
