Our daddy raised us
To protect ourselves
Don't depend on no one
Don't need nobody else
When trouble called
Used to stand our ground
But now we're on the run
We're just dust left on this town
Chorus:
Yeah, we run from the law, run from the rules
Run from the holy son
Run from our past, run from the man
Run from everyone
Run from the storm, run from our sins
Ride with smoking wheels
And when the Devil's knocking on our doors
We head for the hills
We drink all day
We cuss and fight
We fish and shoot
We smoke all night
When they come looking
Those boys in blue
We don't leave a trace
Because we know what to do
Chorus:
Yeah, we run from the law, run from the rules
Run from the holy son
Run from our past, run from the man
Run from everyone
Run from the storm, run from our sins
Ride with smoking wheels
And when the Devil's knocking on our doors
We head for the hills
Bridge:
We won't come back
We won't slow down
And if Hell comes calling
He won't catch us now
Chorus:
Yeah, we run from the law, run from the rules
Run from the holy son
Run from our past, run from the man
Run from everyone
Run from the storm, run from our sins
Ride with smoking wheels
And when the Devil's knocking on our doors
We head for the hills

Head for the Hills (Devil's Knocking)

Wow, thanks RickeyJoe!

This is a great little rebel song.The first stanza could be tighten up a bit.The third and fourth lines could be put together:
Don't depend on
No one else
If you edited out those words,wrote it like this,I think the rhythm would be must stronger.This could be a movie soundtrack song. -
Thank you Doug! I agree, those two lines are a little redundant together. I appreciate the feedback!
