Lyrics:

Found a pearl down in the ocean
Big and bright
That pearl would glow
On the darkest of nights
Thought I’d realise my dreams
I was wrong, well so it seems

I can’t run away no more
Don’t know what I’m running for

Took my wife and family
Over mountains, under trees
Run away to a better place
But there were a thousand trials
To face

I can’t run away no more
Don’t know what I’m running for

Bounty hunter came to track
Me down with a shotgun in
His hand he shot our little boy
Down we lay there in the sand

I can’t run away no more
Don’t know what I’m running for

Then we made our way back home
That’s where we’re gonna stay
We looked out to the ocean
And threw the pearl away

I can’t run away no more
Don’t know what I’m running for
I can’t run away no more
Don’t know what I was running for
