Two brothers loaded down for bed
When the trooper pulled us over
Could have been in jail a long time
Could have been a little sober
Always felt safe beside you
You got us off the hook
Of course, we walked away
I always thought you would, yeah

And everybody loves a winner
You never were a second stringer
Keep on callin' me from Nashville
And everybody loves a winner

Keep on runnin' brother
Never let them catch you
We can rest a while
Off the beaten track
Underneath the bridge
We'll be together once again
Always thought we would, yeah

And everybody loves a winner
You never were a second stringer
Keep on callin' me from Memphis
And everybody loves a winner

Keep on runnin' brother
And never let them catch you
Keep on runnin' brother
And never let them catch you
I know a place where we can rest
About a mile away from here
I know a place where we can rest
About a mile away from here

And in a field of black-eyed susans
Shared a beer with you, and
And in a field of black-eyed susans
I will not forget you
I sleep late every mornin'
And you are on the run, yeah
I sleep late every mornin'
And your on the run, but
I will not forget you
I will not forget you
I will not forget you
I will not forget you
And I will not forget you
I will not forget you
I will not forget you
I will not forget you
