    Lyrics
    SHE TOOK ALL HER MONEY FROM THE NORTHERN TRUST AND SHE RAN
    AWAY FROM THE HANDS OF A NO GOOD MAN
    SHE WROTE TO HER MAMA DON’T YOU WORRY NONE
    THERE’S A BETTER ROAD TO HEAVEN AND I’VE GOT A GUN
    A BETTER ROAD TO HEAVEN AND I’VE GOT A GUN
    chorus
    NOW EVERY BAD MARRIAGE… ENDS IT’S TRUE
    WHEN THE MAN’S A DRUNK AND HE’S BEATIN’ ON YOU
    EVERY MORNING THE SUN COMES UP TO STAY
    AND ANOTHER FREE WOMAN GETS TO WALK AWAY…
    ANOTHER FREE WOMAN GETS TO WALK AWAY….

    SHE’S GOT HER EYE ON ROAD AND A BIBLE ON HER LAP
    HER FINGERS WALKIN’ OVER A GREAT LAKES MAP
    SHE WOULDA GOT CLEAR LIKE A BIRD THAT FLEW
    BUT THE LAW IS A MAN AND HE’S WAITIN’ ON YOU
    BUT THE LAW IS A MAN AND HE’S WAITIN’ ON YOU
    chorus

    BLOOD RED DAWN IN A DARK NIGHT SKY
    AND THE MOON LOOKIN’ DOWN WITH A COLD ,CLEAR EYE.
    THE TRUCK BEHIND HER WAS GAINING FAST
    SO SHE STOPPED ON THE SHOULDER TO LET HIM PASS…

    AND SHE SAW HIS FACE AS THE TRUCK DOOR SLAMMED
    THERE WAS MURDER IN THE EYES OF THAT NO GOOD MAN
    SO SHE REACHED IN HER BIBLE AND PULLED HER GUN
    ONE SHOT RANG AND IN THE RAISING SUN
