Nickelback feat. Nuno Bettencourt Lyrics
"For The River"

Stuck in a cage, luck of the draw, always a way
Gotta get out, Lord, I'm gonna find one
Get me a key, pick me a lock, gotta be free
Ready or not, gotta run, gotta run

Gotta run, gotta run
Gotta run, gotta run

Nowhere to hide 'cause someone's always going to find you
Trying to breathe with everybody right behind you
Scattering leaves to try and cover up my footprints
Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

I'm running for the river
'Cause the river's running high and there ain't no going back
They'll never catch me

I'm runnin' for the river
You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you tried
But there ain't no goin' back, they'll never catch me

Tell 'em that you tried but they're never gonna catch me

Let out the hounds, send out the guards, never be found
Better than bars and damn it, he's a fast one
Out of the trees, into the swamp, gotta be free
So don't ever stop, gotta run, gotta run

Gotta run, gotta run
God damn it, he's a fast one

Nowhere to hide 'cause someone's always going to find you
Trying to breathe with everybody right behind you
Scattering leaves to try and cover up my footprints
Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

I'm running for the river
'Cause the river's running high and there ain't no going back
They'll never catch me

I'm runnin' for the river
You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you tried
But there ain't no goin' back, they'll never catch me

Tell 'em that you tried but they're never gonna catch me

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance
Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance (Gotta run, gotta run)
Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance
Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance (Gotta run, gotta run)

I'm running for the river
'Cause the river's running high and there ain't no going back
They'll never catch me

I'm runnin' for the river
You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you tried
But there ain't no goin' back, they'll never catch me

They'll never catch me
Never gonna catch me
Never gonna catch me
They'll never catch me
