Lyrics
they d seen him runnin through the everglades
well the possy went in and he came back out
he d never heard the news on the radio
And said he ll die and there ain t no doubt, if the skeeters don t get him in the gatersville
And have no fear of the bayin hound, his family gave him up for dead, the jury had ruled it was self defense
He was deep in the glades and he ll never know, he won t last long in the everglades, well the possy went in and he came back out
Now a man can hide, where a man can hide and never be found Trio, now a man can hide
a man can t live in the everglades
he won t last long in the everglades
a nice young man not the kind to kill
His family gave him up for dead, but now and then the natives would say, if the skeeters don t get him in the gatersville
he won t last long in the everglades
but now and then the natives would say
and said he ll die and there ain t no doubt
Now a man can hide, he d never heard the news on the radio
Where a man can hide and never be found, and said he ll die and there ain t no doubt Everglades, but now and then the natives would say
it s an eye for a nice so the death is fate
If the skeeters don t get him in the gatersville, he was deep in the glades and he ll never know
And said he ll die and there ain t no doubt, a man can t live in the everglades Everglades, and said he ll die and there ain t no doubt
the jury had ruled it was self defense
he d never heard the news on the radio
well the possy went in and he came back out
he won t last long in the everglades
His family gave him up for dead, and said he ll die and there ain t no doubt
His family gave him up for dead, the jury had ruled it was self defense
Now a man can hide, runnin like the dog through the everglades
well the possy went in and he came back out
sent him on the run through the everglades
He s runnin and hidin doesn t make much sense, but the jealous fight and the flashing blade
The jury had ruled it was self defense, he d never heard the news on the radio
where a man can hide and never be found
A nice young man not the kind to kill, they d seen him runnin through the everglades
And have no fear of the bayin hound, he s runnin and hidin doesn t make much sense, if the skeeters don t get him in the gatersville
