With a red head ridin' shot-gun and a pistol by my side
Yeah and it's a long way to Richmond, rollin' north on 95
We met at a truck stop, Johnson City, Tennessee
We were countin' all the money, smokin' stolen Marlboro Lights
Yeah, well it's a long way to Richmond, rollin' north on 95
Well we pulled up to a motel in the middle of the night
Said, "Which way are you headed boy? Do you need some company?"
Next thing she was runnin' at me tellin' me to lay that hammer down
I was gasin' up my Firebird when I heard her calling me
She had me stoppin' at a quick mart before we made it out of town
Tearin' down that highway like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde
Tearin' down that highway like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde
'Cuz there's a man right behind me doing his best to slow me down
With a sheriff right beside me, pistol pointed at my side
Lord we never saw 'em coming, till they read us both our rights
