Eight hundred wheels
One hundred cars
Did what I done
But now long gone
Hoppin' a freight
Makin' my great escape
Across the river
I'll make it in one hour straight
See me out there
I know they're comin'
I'm the one for who
They're gunnin'
They got my number
I got their money
But no saving grace
Thats my train
Edward Mongon is the name
As ringleader I took the blame
Ten thousand to one
I would prevail
Then they got me
A million bucks my bail
See me out there
I know they're comin'
I'm the one for whom
They're gunnin'
They got my number
I got their money
But no saving grace
If I could, I'd turn back time
Cuz all I see
Is trouble on down the line
But time ain't static
It pushes on like the day
And I'm left here runnin' from the law
On my train
Don't get close
I'm no good honey
Sounds cliche
But you don't know me
The price I'd pay to not be guilty
Like an outlaw, always running
Got no plans, just going and coming
