Whole world's come undone
From lookin' straight at the sun

They found him underneath a train
But man, he had it comin'
Now that Janie's got a gun she ain't never gonna be the same

Her dog days just begun
Now everybody is on the run
Tell me now it's untrue
What did her daddy do?

The man has got to be insane
They say the spell that he was under the lightning and the thunder knew that
someone had to stop the rain

Run away, run away from the pain

She had to take him down easy and put a bullet in his brain
She said 'Cause nobody believes me
The man was such a sleaze, he ain't never gonna be the same

Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away
