Lambert, Miranda - Run Daddy Run Lyrics






Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.

All the songs you used to sing to me
Would rock birds to sleep
I need you now so please somehow
Put rockets on your feet

Oh oh oh oh

Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.

Saw that dark cloud coming from a million miles away.
Oh how I've dreaded this God forsaken day.

Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.

Mama's been crying in the kitchen
Sister's been afraid of the dark.
I've been gathering the pieces of all these shattered hearts.
And I don't care where you go to
And I don't care where you land
But just get out of there daddy as fast as you can

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.

Run Daddy run, run daddy run.
Run Daddy run, run daddy run.

  13. E.... ....

    DAMMIT NOW I ALWAYS SEE DADDY AS A DIRTY WORD AND ITS RUINING THIS SONG

    THANKS PEOPLE OF THE INTERNET

    E.... ....

    +Everdeen10 ugh I find that so gross when people call guy celebs daddy. Like it's fine if you have afetish for your boyfriend in real life but stop calling celebs mom and dad. it's sick and stupid.

    E.... ....

    Everdeen10 EWW!!! I can't think of this song the same again

    E.... ....

    and thank you........ liked this song when the CD came out first time hearing it since then and you ruined........

    E.... ....

    thank you for your consideration *bowing*

    E.... ....

    bro. why

  14. P.... M....

    I would listen to this like 2 years ago and my little sister called it a "bad song" because it said 'Devil' and 'Gun'

    P.... M....

    Potion Maker Lmao😂😂

  15. P.... P....

    Katniss still wakes up screaming for her father to run.

  16. Z.... H....

    I love country music & I never knew Miranda Lambert sang this song 😭 have not listened to it for years!

  17. B.... A....

    this sounds like beth and Maggie from the walking dead singing this to eachother

    B.... A....

    I thought the same thing!

    B.... A....

    +Zahlappell omg yassssssss

    B.... A....

    Omg yess

  18. E.... ....

    I think this song is aout them waiting outside the mines after the accident. (Its not in the movie but the first book)

  19. M.... A....

    if you do not know this song is about kattniess father and how he died in the mines when they say "Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near like a bullet from a gun run daddy run" it means daddy can you hear the mines blowing up. When they say the can see the smoke from a million miles away they could see the mines blowing up.

    M.... A....

    @Angie Young you welcome

    M.... A....

    lol i idnt know what to say idk the song

    M.... A....

    +montanna and mimi or maybe it's not that literal? It could be, or it could be asking if he can sense something bad about to happen. The dark cloud could reference the innate and assumed risk taken on by coal miners. It is a very dangerous job where a lot can go wrong very quickly.

    M.... A....

    @Full Moon Lover  Never thought of it like that... Thanks :)

  20. B.... T....

    I was actually singing this song, and my dad came up the stairs. I lowered my voice, hopeing that he hadn't heard me, he made no sign of it.

    B.... T....

    hi michaela its me

    B.... T....

    First rule of YouTube, don't say my nickname. Second rule, HOW THE FUCK DID YOU FIND ME?!

    B.... T....

    just that i can pretty much find anyone or anything on an electronic so ya

    B.... T....

    0.o okay then....

    Facinating thing I just discovered. I can sing Touch the Sky from Brave with the accent to an extent. Yep. I definetly think I have some Irish roots.

    B.... T....

    +Blaze The Demidragon or you're just good at accents? I can do a pretty descent Russian accent but I have no Russian in me.

  21. Y.... A....

    I have read THG 3 years ago but still a huge fan of the book, the movie and the whole soundtrack. Crying every time I hear this :')

  22. H.... Z....

    I so didn't know Miranda Lambert had a song on here with the Pistol Annies. I actually don't remember hearing it in the movie. What scene did this even play in? help?

    H.... Z....

    +Hopi Zapico its not in the movie, they play it in the credits.

  23. M.... B....

    I love love love this song

  24. C.... F....

  29. m.... g....

  30. C.... N....

    I love this song, but this is driving me nuts!! The lyric is 'Saw that dark cloud coming from a million miles away'. No offense to anyone, but I just HAD to say that. :D

  31. N.... -....

    yep thats right :)

  32. d.... k....

    the chemistry sequence between katniss and peeta is lovely

  33. g.... ....

    i luv ur name

  34. g.... ....

    ur name is awesome!

  35. D.... H....

    I remember something from the first book maybe? Don't hate me if I mess this up. "Five years later I still wake up screaming for him to run," ~Katniss Everdeen

  36. g.... m....

    i do too

  37. p.... j....

    Like Katniss and Primrose, cause Katniss doesn't have two voices.

  38. R.... ....

    i love this song.

  39. D.... S....

    do only i cry always when i listen to this song??....

  40. C.... S....

    You can torture us, bombard us, set on fire our districts but you see that?
    FIRE IS CATCHING
    and if we burn
    you burn with us!

  41. A.... D....

    Sounds just like Katniss life, Katniss deffo signs this

  42. A.... K....

    feel sorry for katniss

  43. A.... K....

    it makes me cry if i think deeply abt it

  44. a.... c....

    "Happy hunger games, and may the odds be ever in your favor" XD

  45. B.... G....

    I've listen to the whole sound track and I haven't shed a single tear yet.... yet....

  46. C.... G....

    Tell me why Hunger Games everything has to be so perfect? :')

  47. G.... Q....

    omg this song describes katniss' life perfectly.

  48. A.... H....

    Can I mention that Miranda Lambert is one of the singers in the Pistol Annies. Its one band.... not two separate ones.

  49. K.... S....

    love hunger games

  50. L.... ....

    This is very like the songs of appalacia...i def think thats why they did the whole the soundtrack this way. I looooove the bluegrass feel to it.

  51. a.... ....

    This song is about when Katniss's father died in a mine accident. The book says that she still wakes up screaming for him to run.

  52. S.... D....

    sounds like prim and katniss singing to there father with the crap of a life they have....

  53. P.... J....

    Spent all his life digging his grave.

  54. K.... ....

    It's supposed to....

  55. T.... D....

    This song truly captures the emotion of Katniss's father's death. It's so beautiful that I cry almost every time I hear it. R.I.P. Mr. Everdeen

  56. b.... l....

    I can see Katniss singing this.

  57. F.... H....

    when your reading the book and your listen to it and safe and sound

  58. J.... W....

    When is this in it?

  59. k.... l....

    good lord, i love this song. Love PA <3

  60. M.... F....

    I know it's impossible, but I wish Katniss' dad was described more in the books, or that we knew him better. I guess it's just because he seems like a wonderful person and I would love to know more about him.

  61. z.... ....

    WOW. This is really different from Miranda Lamberts other stuff, I like it!

  62. N.... E....

    My father died almost 3 years ago when I was 10. I was devastated, but it did bring my severed family together. It does get better, but I still miss my dad everyday. As long as you have people there for you, it'll get better c:

  63. A.... M....

    imagine how helpless and hopeless she must've felt when her dad died...
    mine died in 2012, so i can relate. But i wasn't totally alone, even if i felt like it... my family's always there. Still, i felt my life has been destroyed.
    But Katniss's got it worst. Taking care of her family, while her mom go into some kind of depression. She doesn't trust her own mother anymore... That must've been hell...

  64. w.... ....

    this relates to Katniss perfectly (moslty why they put this song on the soundtrack) because she usually wakes up screaming for her father to run.the birds would ALWAYS stop chirping just to hear Katniss's father sing :)

  65. 1.... ....

    This song fits into the hunger games perfectly.

  66. J.... B....

    this song describes Katniss perfectly.
