[00:04:32] Maria Elena - Ry Cooder

[00:04:32] (Bobby Ray Appleberry, William Cuomo)

[00:04:32] Johnny Porter was the oldest in his family

[00:04:32] And I remember he was almost twenty one

[00:04:32] Y'know I can't quite explain the situation

[00:04:32] But he broke into his father's truck and stole a gun

[00:04:32] Mother running down the highway screaming

[00:04:32] Johnny it's too bad, oh it's too and it's bad

[00:04:32] And it's too bad

[00:04:32] Well, his father wonders where he got the money

[00:04:32] And he wonders if he got it right or wrong

[00:04:32] Then Johnny killed a man in Pensacola, Florida

[00:04:32] And he caught a freight train and and took off on the run

[00:04:32] Well, run, Johnny, run

[00:04:32] They're rolling right behind you

[00:04:32] Run, Johnny, run

[00:04:32] You know they're gonna find you

[00:04:32] You come out late at night, 'cause you're running for your life

[00:04:32] Hum, Johnny Porter

[00:04:32] Johnny Porter

[00:04:32] Yeah, yeah, yeah

[00:04:32] Well, it's a shame the way you make your mother worry

[00:04:32] And it's hurts inside to sit and watch her cry

[00:04:32] And it will be a long time before she knows the answer

[00:04:32] But it won't be long before she will see ya die

[00:04:32] Well, I was standing in my front door early this morning

[00:04:32] So sad, when I heard my name was said

[00:04:32] Johnny Porter was no good than anybody

[00:04:32] But I hate to see him throw his life away

[00:04:32] Now, run, Johnny, run

[00:04:32] They're rolling right behind you

[00:04:32] Run, Johnny, run

[00:04:32] You know they're gonna find you

[00:04:32] You come out late at night, 'cause you're running for your life

[00:04:32] Well, Johnny Porter, Johnny Porter

[00:04:32] Found him holed up in some dark and dirty building

[00:04:32] Heard his mother begging,
