Låttexter: Stoney LaRue. Idabel Blues.

Running hard and running fast
Trying to get away
Going to the bayou
Where no one knows my name
No one knows my name

Chorus
Won't you hide me Pa
Fore the Red River is my grave
Won't you hide me Pa
Fore the Red River is my grave

Had a job real good pay
Watching summers crop
Made a hundred bucks a day
Guarding those big tops
Guarding those green tops

Chorus

August night up real high
Rifle in my hand
Whiskey drinks, forty winks
They cleared my buddy's land
Cleared my buddy's land

Chorus

Spent my time in Idabel
Just trying to get ahead
Friends I've known all my life
Are wishing I was dead
Wishing I was dead

Chorus

Running hard, running fast
Trying to get away
Going to the bayou
Where no one knows my name
No one knows my name

Chorus
