Testi di Runaway Jim - Phish

Runaway Jim (originale)

I had a dog, his name was Jim
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Took all of my old clothes with him
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Oh, runaway Jim
Oh, runaway Jim
He was twelve years old when his trip began
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Hauling down the highway in my old sedan
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Oh, runaway Jim
Oh, runaway Jim
Now I wish someone’d tell me where old Jim went
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
'Cause he took all the money that I saved for rent
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Oh, runaway Jim
Oh, runaway Jim
Time he came home, he was seventeen
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
That’s a hundred nineteen to you and me
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Oh, runaway Jim
Oh, runaway Jim
Now I’m gonna go up to the mountain
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Singing for Dave who’s swimming in the fountain
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Oh, runaway Jim
Oh, runaway Jim
Oh, runaway dogs
Oh, runaway dog
