Ten Cent Pistol

Well he ran around
Late at night
Holding hands
Making light
Of everything
That came before
But there she was
Behind the door
She hit them with
Her ten cent pistol
Because they ruined her name
Well she hit them with
Her ten cent pistol
And they never been the same
Theres nothing worse
In this world
Than payback from
A jealous girl
The laws of man
They don't apply
When blood gets in
A womans eye
Well she hit them with
Her ten cent pistol
Because they ruined her name
Well she hit them with
Her ten cent pistol
And they never been the same
The same
Stars did fall
Thunder rolled
Bugs crawled back
In their holes
The couple screamed
But it was far too late
A jealous heart
Did retaliate
She hit them with
Her ten cent pistol
Because they ruined her name
Well she hit them with
Her ten cent pistol
And they never been the same
Oh the same
Oh the same
Never been the same
