David Allan Coe (born September 6, 1939) is an American singer and songwriter. Coe took up music after spending much of his early life in reform schools and prisons, and first became notable for busking in Nashville. He initially played mostly in the blues style, before transitioning to country music, becoming a major part of the 1970s outlaw country scene. His biggest hits were "Mona Lisa Lost Her Smile", "The Ride", "You Never Even Called Me by My Name", "She Used to Love Me a Lot", and "Longhaired Redneck".

Living On The Run by David Allan Coe and Jimmy L. Howard as performed by David Allan Coe
AE Seems like it's raining harder today
F#m The rain must've known I was comin' this way
DA It ain't easy living on the run
If I pick up my step and pull my belt down tight I can make it to the border by Saturday night And it's lonely living on the run.
F#m I killed me a woman in Tennessee
D I just broke jail and they're gunnin' for me
AEF#m I'm on the run, living on the run
AEF#m I'm on the run, living on the run
My woman wanted more than a man could steal From the bottom of the deck's where I learned to deal And it got me living on the run Women love an outlaw I heard folks say And I'll be an outlaw till my dying day Cause it got me living on the run.
I killed me a woman in Tennessee I Just broke jail and they're gunnin' for me I'm on the run, living on the run I'm on the run, living on the run
