Bertha - Los Lobos

I had a hard run

Running from your window

I was all night running, running, running

I wonder if you care?

I had a run-in

Run around and run down

Run around a corner

Run smack into a tree

I had to move

Really had to move

That’s why, if you please

I am on my bended knees

Bertha, don’t you come around here anymore

Dressed myself in green

I went down to the sea

Try to see what’s going down

Try to read between the lines

Had a feeling I was falling, falling, falling

Turned around to see

Heard a voice a-calling, calling, calling

You was coming after me

Back to me

I had to move

Really had to move

That’s why, if you please

I am on my bended knees

Bertha, don’t you come around here anymore

Ran into a rainstorm

Ducked into a bar door

It was all night pouring, pouring rain

But not a drop on me

Test me, test me

Why don’t you arrest me?

Throw me in the jail house

Until the sun goes down

Till it go down

I had to move

Really had to move

That’s why, if you please

I am on my bended knees

Bertha, don’t you come around here anymore
