I couldn't stay around and finish High School
I had to hit the streets as soon as I could
Now I'm running, always running
As I turned out the way they said I would

Daddy told me all about chasing women
Watched my Momma lose her mind and all her hope
Now the only thing that's left of my pathetic life
Is dangling at the end of a rope
What's done is done

Had me way too much fun
Now I'm running from a man with a gun
Looking back over my shoulder, but I won't get much older
What's done is done
Lord, what's done is done

Started hanging with the wrong kind of people
Fooling with the wrong kind of folks
Made my living doing things, got me locked up in chains
As I went the way they said I'd go

Ahhh, what's done is done
Had me way too much fun
Now I'm running from a man with a gun
Looking back over my shoulder, but I won't get much older

What's done is done
Had me way to much fun
Ohhh, running from a man with a gun
Looking back over my shoulder, but I won't get much older
What's done is done

Oh what's done is done
Hey, ya, done is done
ohh what's done is done
