She walked through the corn leading down to the river Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun She took all the love that a poor boy could give her And left me to die like a fox on the run Like a fox like a fox like a fox on the run Everybody knows the reason for the fall When woman tempted man down in paradise's hall This woman tempted me oh yeah then took me for a ride But like the weary fox I need a place to hide She walked through the corn leading down to the river Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun She took all the love that a poor boy could give her And left me to die like a fox on the run Like a fox like a fox like a fox on the run Oh take a glass of wine and fortify your soul We'll talk about the world and friends we used to know I'll illustrate a girl you put me on the floor The game is nearly up the hounds are at my door I saw her walk through the corn leading down to the river Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun She took all the love that her poor boy could give her And left me to die like a fox on the run You know she walked through the corn leading down to the river Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun She took all the love that her poor boy could give her Left me here to die Like a fox like a fox like a fox on the run
