Across the Great Divide

Across The Great Divide, just grab your hat, and take that ride
I had a goal in my younger days, I nearly wrote my will
Your time will surely come, you'll feed your man chicken every Sunday
Across The Great Divide, just grab your hat, and take that ride
Now I'm gonna crawl, across The Great Divide
Harvest moon shinin' down from the sky, a weary sign for all
Get yourself a bride, and bring your children down to the river side

Now tell me, hon, what you done with the gun
Tried to keep my hands to myself, you say it's a must

Now Molly dear, don't you shed a tear
Try and understand your man the best you can
Pinball machine, and a Queen, I nearly took a bust

I'm gonna leave this one horse town, had to stall till the fall
But I changed my mind for the better
I'm at the still, had my fill and I'm fit to kill

Across The Great Divide, just grab your hat, and take that ride
But who can you trust?

Get yourself a bride, and bring your children down to the river side
