John Parr - Steal You Away Lyrics

He was a coalminer, working down in Pittsburg P.A.
She was his bride, but he held her in his arms for just a day

Everybody told him he was crazy, but he knew better
Couldn't get that girl out of his head, he was gonna get her
Loaded up the truck, and stole her away

I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away
I'm gonna steal ya, gonna cut a road to L.A.

A thousand miles to go, and a thousand more behind, they were on the run
Love can make you blind, so you never realize just what you're running from

Everybody told 'em they were crazy, but they knew better
Sure as there's a sun up in the sky, they were gonna get there
Put their trust in luck to show them the way, yeah yeah

I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away, gonna get you today
I'm gonna steal ya, gonna cut a road to L.A.

(Solo)

Just like that silver bird, we were never meant to fly
Forget about them, put your trust in me
You're gonna see your name up in lights

I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away, gonna get you today
I'm gonna steal ya, gonna cut a road to L.A., hey yeah
I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away, gonna get you today
I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away, steal you away
I'm gonna steal ya, gonna steal you away, yeah
Steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away

I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away
I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away
I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away, yeah
I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna

I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away, gonna get you today
I'm gonna steal ya, gonna cut a road to L.A., yeah yeah
I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away, yeah yeah
I'm gonna steal ya, I'm gonna steal you away... (to fade)
