[Verse 1: Jerry Garcia]
I had a hard run
Running from your window
I was all night running
I wonder if you care?
I had a run-in
Run around and a run down
Run around a corner
Run smack into a tree

[Chorus: All]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don’t you come around here anymore

[Verse 2: Jerry Garcia]
Dressed myself in green
I went back under the sea
Try to see what's going down
Lord, try to read between the lines
I had a feeling I was falling
Falling, falling
I turned around to see
Who's a-calling?
You was a-running back to me
[Chorus: All]
I had to move
Really had to move
That’s why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore

[Verse 3: Jerry Garcia]
Ran into a rainstorm
Ducked back into a bar door
It was all night pouring
But not a drop on me
Tеst me, test me
Whoa, why don't you arrеst me?
Throw me into the jail house
Lord, until the sun goes down

[Chorus: All]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus: All]
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
I had to move
Really had to move
That's why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don’t you come around here anymore
I had to move
Really had to move
That’s why, if you please
I am on my bended knees
Bertha, don't you come around here anymore
