She walks 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 And took me for a ride But like the weary fox I need a place to hide She walks 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 We'll take a glass of wine And fortify your soul We'll talk about the world And friends we used to know I'll fill a straighter girl Who put me on the floor? The game is nearly up And the hounds are at the door She walks 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.
