Harlan Howard

He was born and raised around Jacksonville. A nice young man, not the kind to kill.
But a jealous fight and a flashing blade sent him on the run to the Everglades. Runnin` like a dog through the Everglades.

Now, the posse went in and they came back out. They said he`ll die and there ain`t no doubt.
It`s an eye for an eye so the debt is paid. He won`t last long in the Everglades. A man can`t live in the Everglades.

Chorus:
Where a man can hide and never be found and have no fear of the bayin` hounds.
But he better keep movin` and don`t stand still. If the `skeeters don`t get then the `gaters will. Runnin` like a dog through the Everglades. (Last time - Skippin` like a frog through the slimy bog. Runnin` through the trees from the Everlys.)

Now, the years went by and his girl was wed. His fam`ly gave him up for dead.
But now and then the natives would say they`d seen him runnin` through the Everglades.

Now, he never heard the news on the radio. He was deep in the `glades so he`ll never know.
His runnin` and hidin` didn`t make much sense for the jury had ruled it was self-defense.
Running like a dog through the Everglades.

(Chorus)
