Oh, yeah Movin' out to the sounds of the runnin' beat Freezin' my feet in the cold Montana sleet 'Cause the road has been an endless scene Since I took that bus from Abilene I'll bet they're searchin' high and low for me Hitchin' through the salt flats on my way to LA Seems like a year since I seen a sunny day If I only hadn't have used that gun Maybe now I wouldn't be on the run I just can't stop, can't let them get to me Betty Lou, what have you done to me? You know you made my life an endless misery Well, if I hadn't have used that gun Lord, a free man I might be But I'll come back and get you, wait and see Oh, yeah I had to get in from the heat that summer night I never thought I'd get into a fight Well, then I saw her standin' there Sequined hot pants and teased up hair And her eyes said, "baby, get on over here" Then this cat arrives, sayin' he's her man Knocks me down, a pistol's in his hand I jump up and hit him good You know I grab his gun and there I stood A flash, a bang, and I'm a wanted man Betty Lou, what have you done to me? You know you made my life an endless misery Well, if I hadn't have used that gun Lord, a free man I might be But I'll come back and get you, wait and see Yeah Betty Lou, what have you done to me? You know you made my life an endless misery Well, if I hadn't have used that gun Lord, a free man I might be But I'll come back and get you, wait and see You know that I'll come back and get you, wait and see Oh now that I've come back to get you, wait and see
