Across the Great Divide

Across The Great Divide, just grab your hat, and take that ride
Now tell me, hon, what you done with the gun
Harvest moon shinin' down from the sky, a weary sign for all
I'm gonna leave this one horse town, had to stall till the fall
Get yourself a bride, and bring your children down to the river side

But who can you trust?
Get yourself a bride, and bring your children down to the river side
Across The Great Divide, just grab your hat, and take that ride
Tried to keep my hands to myself, you say it's a must

Pinball machine, and a Queen, I nearly took a bust
Try and understand your man the best you can
I'm at the still, had my fill and I'm fit to kill

But I changed my mind for the better
Now I'm gonna crawl, across The Great Divide

Now Molly dear, don't you shed a tear

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
I had a goal in my younger days, I nearly wrote my will
