mike cullison – walkin’ sam lyrics
it wasn’t long ago i got entangled in her long brown hair
she was the daughter of a prominent southern millionaire
she said it was my child and plans got underway
to lock me in a saw mill until my dyin’ day
so i took the steps i needed out of alabam
i got my picture on a poster, i’m known as walking sam
they got close in nashville down at tootsie’s lounge
so i slipped out the back, i left a tab of seven rounds
then i met a memphis queen with money to burn
and all she bought herself was a hard lesson learned
“in god we trust” is all i understand
now i got to move along, they call me walking sam
chorus
i don’t run from trouble that only draws attention
when things get too hot i ease out of the kitchen
ain’t no future in makin’ a final stand
i got the need to be free, my name is walking sam
i ran completely out of luck south of tulsa town
when a redneck bounty hunter fin’ly tracked me down
a jury of my peers they gave me five to eight
thinking all that time would help me change my ways
now the atmore county farm is missing a man
they didn’t hear my footfall, i’m known as walking sam
chorus
