No Place To Hide Lyrics - Alison Krauss & Union Station

When I was a traveler 

I used to love to watch the rain 

I'd stand under the downspout 

Let the water cool my brain 

I never thought to worry 

If the river rose too high 

That all the seeds we planted 

Would get washed out with the tide 

But now I am a man 

And I need a place to hide 

But there's nowhere to run 

And there's no place to hide 

Where the water runs free 

And the mud starts to slide 

When I was a young man 

I could work through wind and rain 

I never thought to worry 

Had no reason to complain 

I thought that I was standin' 

On a rock so firm and strong 

But it was easy then to see 

Just what was right and what was wrong 

But now I am a man 

I won't be hangin' 'round too long 

When I was a child 

I used to love to watch the rain 

I'd stand under the downspout 

Let the water cool my brain 

I never thought to worry 

If the river rose too high 

And all the dreams we planted 

Would get washed out with the tide 

But there's nowhere to run 

And there's no place to hide 

Where the water runs free 

And the mud starts to slide 

Where the water runs free 

And the mud starts to slide
