Early mornin' lookin' tired and worn
And lookin' out for the enemy
You made all the way to Hudson Bay
But you're right back here with me
Tryin' to run away (where you runnin' my baby)
Your lips are sealed, a runaway (where you runnin' my baby)

So tell me baby
What you're wantin' me to do
Givin' my love to you
(Mama don't you know)
Now you're livin' like a runaway

Sunday dawn you met a Gypsy woman
On a road to Tennessee
She told you a lot about the world to come
But did she tell you why you couldn't tell me
Like a runaway (where you runnin' my baby)
How one by one you run away (where you runnin' my baby)

Now tell me baby
What you want me to do
Givin' all my love to you
(Mama don't you know)

Chorus:
It's gonna be a hard leavin'
You're gonna need a strong reason
'Cause I ain't gonna start believin'
That you're out of my life
You bet you better do your fast talkin'
Before you do your last walkin'
It's gonna be a hard, hard leavin'

(talk to me)
Vox humana
Sounds just like your voice to me
Vox humana
I wanna feel the power of speech
Vox humana
Sounds so right so real to me
Vox humana

You gotta say
What you oughta say
Don't try to run away
Darlin' I'm lettin' you know

(Chorus 3x)
