Run Forrest, Run

Down in Alabama, where the river flows
A boy named Forrest, everybody knows
Running through the fields, chasing dreams
Life ain't always easy, or what it seems

Run, Forrest, run, (run Forrest, run)
Through the rain and under the sun
Run, Forrest, run, (run Forrest, run)
Life's a journey, never done

Mama always said, life's a box of chocolates
Met Jenny on the bus, oh what a treat
Through the highs and lows, our love was true
From the schoolyard days, to the war's dark hue

Run, Forrest, run, (run Forrest, run)
Through the rain and under the sun
Run, Forrest, run, (run Forrest, run)
Life's a journey, never done

Shrimpin' with Bubba, in the bay so wide
Lieutenant Dan, by his side
Ping-pong champion, world to see
Forrest kept on runnin', wild and free

From coast to coast, he ran so far
Underneath the moon and the morning star
People joined along, found their way
Forrest led the path, day by day

Run, Forrest, run, (run Forrest, run)
Through the rain and under the sun
Run, Forrest, run, (run Forrest, run)
Life's a journey, never done

Feather in the wind, living free
Run, Forrest, run, (run Forrest, run)
Feather in the wind, living free
Run, Forrest, run, (run Forrest, run)
