[Verse 1}
California’s lost her love for me
Seems she’s trying to convict me now
Seems her heart has turned against me now
{Pre-chorus}
If I sail to Acapulco or Cancun Mexico
Then the odds are all against me
But god knows that I’m innocentIf I sail to Acapulco or Cancun Mexico
There the law is waiting for me
And God knows that I’m innocent
{Chorus}
If they won’t take me in Cairo
Then Lord knows where will I go
I’ll die a man without a country
And only God knew I was innocent nowIf sail to Acapulco or Cancun Mexico
There the law is waiting for me
But God knows that I’m innocentIf the British try to find me then{Vеrse 2}
Lord where will I go?
Lеt the whole world go against me
Long as God knows
I’m an innocent man now{Second Chorus}
Farewell to all my years in Hollywood
Or Farewell to all my dreams in Hollywood
Let the whole world be against me
Long as God knows I’m an innocent man[Verse 3]
Now if the British try to find me
Then lord knows where will I go ?
Let the whole world try to find me
Long as God knows
Sometimes I feel just like a fugitiveI’m running for my life and deep inside I ask the question why
But I’m not running at all
I’m just healing a lonely wounded heart
The truth becomes the lie I wish I could fly away
