Bert Jansch - Buckrabbit

Buckrabbit running now swiftly home
Fox is on his tail
He won't look back, just keeps on going
Running on down the trail

Now, don't think that you can get away
I'm too damn clever for you
I've been trailing you night and day
Ain't nothing you can do

Run rabbit, run through the brambly briar
Your heart's beating faster
Your blood's rising higher and higher

I'm looking for a house and a home
On the other side of the hill
I don't wanna travel alone
But if I have to, alone I will

Run rabbit, run through the brambly briar
Your heart's beating faster
Your blood's rising higher and higher

Yeah, run rabbit, run through the brambly briar
Your heart's beating faster
Your blood's rising higher and higher

If I make it through the shadowy woods
Make it 'cross the angry stream
Past the scarecrow under his hood
Past the farmer hungry and mean

Oh, run rabbit, run through the brambly briar
Your heart's beating faster
Your blood's rising higher and higher

I hear him pounding closer and closer
Breathing down my back
Please let me not be the loser
Got to find me an underground track

Buckrabbit running now swiftly home
Fox is on his tail
He won't look back, just keeps on going
Running on down the trail
