Goodbye Earl — текст песни (Dixie Chicks)

Maryanne and Wanda were the best of friends all through their
highschool days
both members of the four H club both active in the FFA
After graduation Maryanne went out looking for a bright new world
Wanda looked all around this town and all she found was Earl
Well it wasn`t 2 weeks after she got married that Wanda started
getting abused
She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses and makeup
to cover her 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, and put
her in intensive care
Right away Maryanne flew in from atlanta on a red eye, midnight flight
She held Wanda`s hand, and they worked out a plan, and it didn`t
take them long to dicide

That Earl had to die...

Goodbye Earl
Those black eyed peas, they tasted alright to me, Earl
You feelin` week? Why don`t you lay down and sleep, Earl
Aint it dark, wrapped up in that tarp, Earl?

The cops came by to bring earl in, they searched the house high and low
Then they tipped thier hats and said thank you ladies, if you
hear from him, let us know
well, the weeks went by and spring turned to summer and summer
faded into the fall
and it turns out he was a missin person who nobody missed at all
so the girls bought some land at a road side stand, down on highway 109
they sell tennesee ham and strawberry jam, and they don`t lose
any sleep at night

Cause Earl had to die...

Goodbye Earl
We need a break...
Lets go out to the lake Earl
We`ll pack a lunch, and stuff you in the trunk, Earl
Is that alright? Good! Lets go for a ride, Earl. Hey!

Well, hey hey hey!
Aww hey hey hey!
Well, hey hey hey
