Old enough to fight the law
G 	  	  	  	 D
She got caught and chewed off her arm

Got a man twice her speed

Too much water on a bad seed

Chorus
 	  	        G  D        C
They crossed the state line doing 95
 	         G         D
Stayed in the It’ll Do Motel
 	        C
Wanted by the law cause he skipped bail
        G                   D
And he tells her one more lie 
      C
Just before she starts to cry
       G             D
If her daddy finds them
                  C 
That boy’s gonna die

 Verse 2:
Angry kid hooked on nicotine
Just like his dad in jail at eighteen
Now he’s twenty one and in love
With a girl who’s just a kid
And never seen the world
They get away, head up north somewhere
They got no money
But they don’t care
They just rob a place and get some money and clothes
And get some speed up her nose

Chorus
 
Verse 3:
Run far enough you catch yourself
Run out of gas and you run like hell
Can’t outrun a police car
They locked them up and put them behind bars
Her parents came and took her back home
He’s up north and all alone
County food tastes like dirt
He hung himself with a county shirt

Chorus
