Bertha (Live at Cow Palace, Daly City, CA, March 23, 1974) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I had a hard run
Running from your window
I was all night running, running
Lord, I wonder if you care
I had a run-in
Run around and run down
Run around a corner, corner, corner
I run smack into a tree
[Chorus]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Verse 2]
Dressed myself in green
I went down under the sea
Try to see what's going down
And Lord, read between the lines
I had a feeling I was falling, falling, falling
I turned around to see
Heard a voice calling, calling
Is running back to me
I had a hard run
Running from your window
I was all night running, running
Lord, I wonder if you care
I had a run-in
Run around and run down
Run around a corner, corner, corner
I run smack into a tree
[Chorus]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Verse 2]
Dressed myself in green
I went down under the sea
Try to see what's going down
And Lord, read between the lines
I had a feeling I was falling, falling, falling
I turned around to see
Heard a voice calling, calling
Is running back to me
[Chorus]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Verse 3]
Ran into a rainstorm
Lord, I ducked into a bar door
It was all night pouring
But not a drop on me
Test me, test me, test me, test me
Why don't you arrest me?
Throw me in the jailhouse
Lord, until the sun goes down
'Til it go down
[Chorus]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Instrumental break]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Verse 3]
Ran into a rainstorm
Lord, I ducked into a bar door
It was all night pouring
But not a drop on me
Test me, test me, test me, test me
Why don't you arrest me?
Throw me in the jailhouse
Lord, until the sun goes down
'Til it go down
[Chorus]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Instrumental break]
[Chorus]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Outro]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
[Outro]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
