Gettin’ on the road again feelin’ mighty low
Slidin’ by like a rattlesnake just west of Texaco
I been keepin’ quiet since old Clyde done flipped the car
Took a bridge they hadn’t built and I might not ever walk
Papers say we’re livin’ large, but it’s no life at all
We’re wanted ‘cross three states and we can’t hardly stop for lunch
Tried to rest at a tourist court in the middle of July
We left with a bullet in Buck’s head and glass in Blanche’s eye
They call me suicide Sal, but Honey I don’t smoke cigars
It was just a joke, you know, and I never shot no one
Three years on the run, just about all a girl can do
Honey if you’re goin’ down, I’m goin’ down with you
Hidin’ in an old carnival when someone called the law
‘Round and ’round like a carousel and Buck and Blanche got caught
Now they got a bounty on my head like all the rest
They’re closin’ in like death but, man, they haven’t caught us yet
They call me suicide Sal, but Honey I don’t smoke cigars
It was just a joke, you know, and I never shot no one
Three years on the run, just about all a girl can do
Honey if you’re goin’ down, I’m goin’ down with you
Well I ain’t so bad, no sir, I never laughed at death
I been thinkin’ hard ’bout what I done and God I do repent
Through the pines of Louisiana, Clyde was drivin’ fast
I took a long deep break who knew that it would be my last
They call me suicide Sal, but Honey I don’t smoke cigars
It was just a joke, you know, and I never shot no one
Three years on the run, just about all a girl can do
Honey if you’re goin’ down, I’m goin’ down with you
