Los Lobos - Bertha Lyrics

I had a hard run, running from your window
I was all night running but I wonder if you care
I had a run-in, run-around and a run-down
Run around a corner, but I run smack into a tree

I had to move, really had to move
That's why if you please, I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore

Dressed myself in green, I went down to the sea
Just to see what was goin' down, I tried to read between the lines
Had a feeling I was falling but I turned around to see
Heard a sweet voice callin', but you were comin' after me

I had to move, really had to move
That's why if you please, I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore, anymore

Ran into a rainstorm and I backed into a bar door
It was all night pouring rain, look but not a drop on me
Try to test me, test me, why don't you arrest me
Throw me into the jail house but until the sun goes down, sun goes down

I had to move, really had to move
That's why if you please, I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore

I had to move, really had to move
That's why if you please, I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
