America - James Holladay Demo Lyrics

James Holladay (Demo) Song Lyrics
James Holladay (Demo) by America James Holladay was a working man

He made his living on the land

But living alone was too much to stand

So Jim found a woman to understand


Two years passed living in joy

When out of the blue came a baby boy

Just to keep up the family name

Mister Holladay said we'll call him little James


So you better run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)

Jim, you gotta get away

You better better run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)

Jim, you gotta get away

You better better run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)

Jim, you gotta get away (Jim you gotta get away)


Little James became a working man

He followed his pa right across the land

At the end of the day when his work was done

He'd sit and watch the setting southern sun


Nineteen years had come and gone

Little Jimmy had grown up big and strong

He didn't know that his time had come

When they handed him a shiny black gun


So his pa said, run, run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)

Jim, you gotta getaway

So you better run, run, run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)

Jim, you gotta get away

So you better run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)

Jim, you gotta get away (Jim you gotta get away)


Run, run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)

Jim, you gotta getaway

You better better run, run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)

Jim, you gotta get away

You better better run, run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)

Jim, you gotta get away
