Don't look now, you better watch that sword that's hanging over you It's a long hard road and they will spit you out When they get through with you Don't hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy you'll soon be dead Chorus: You better run, run Manuela-uela run They're gonna shoot you in the back with your own gun You better run, run Manuela-uela run, Manuela run There's no more time for living out your life, your sky is falling down Don't close your eyes or make a wish on three 'Cause they will still be 'round Don't hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy you'll soon be dead Chorus (Instrumental break) Don't hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy you'll soon be dead You better run, run Manuela-uela run, you better run, run Manuela-uela run You better run, run Manuela-uela run (gonna shoot you in the back with your own gun) You better run, run Manuela-uela run, you better run, run Manuela run You better run, run Manuela run (gonna shoot you in the back with your own gun) You better run, run Manuela run
