Well it wasn't two weeks after she got married that

Wanda started gettin' abused

She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses

And make up to cover a bruise

Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce

She let the law take it from there

But Earl walked right through that restraining order
A E A
And put her in intensive care
[Pre-chorus]

Right away Mary Anne flew in from Atlanta

On a red eye midnight flight

You're feelin' weak why don't you lay down and sleep Earl

The cops came by to bring Earl in

They searched the house high and low
A D
Then they tipped their hats and said thank you ladies
A E A
If you hear from him let us know

Well the weeks went by and spring turned to summer
A E
And summer faded into fall

And it turns out he was a missing person
A E A
That nobody missed at all
[Pre-chorus]

So the girls bought some land and a roadside stand

Out on Highway 109

They sell Tennessee ham and strawberry jam

And they don't lose any sleep at night
[Chorus]
