oor Otis dead and gone, left me here to sing his song,
Pretty little girl with the red dress on,
Poor Otis dead and gone
Back down, turn around slowly, try it again,
Remembering when, it was easy, try it again,
Much too easy remembering when
All right, look at my shoes, not quite the walkin' blues
Don't fight, too much to lose
Can't fight the Runnin' Blues
Well, I've got the Runnin' Blues
Runnin' away, back to L.A.
Got to find the dock on the bay
Maybe find it back in L.A.
Runnin' scared, Runnin' Blues,
Goin' so fast, what'll I do?
