Goodbye Earl

Dixie Chicks
Lyrics entered by Kevin van Houten
No change was made to MIDI sequence

Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends
All through their high school days
Both members of the 4H Club
Both active in the FFA
After graduation Mary Anne went out
Lookin' for a brand new world
Wanda looked all around this town
And all that she could find was Earl

Well, it wasn't two weeks
That after she got married
Wanda started getting abused
Wore dark glasses and long sleeved blouses
And makeup to cover a bruise
Well she fin'lly got the nerve to file for divorce
She let the law take it from there
But Earl walked right through that restraining order
And put her in intensive care

Right away Mary Anne
Flew in from Atlanta
On a red eye midnight flight

She held Wanda's hand
As they worked out a plan
And it didn't take 'em long to decide
That Earl had to die

Goodbye Earl!
Those black-eyed peas
Tasted allright to me Earl
You're feelin' weak?
Why don't you lay down and sleep Earl
Hey, ain't it dark
Wrapped up in that tarp Earl?

The cops came by to bring Earl in
Searched the house high and low
Then they tipped their hats and said
"Thank you ladies
If you hear from him let us know"

Well the weeks went by and Spring
Turned into Summer
And Summer faded into Fall
And it turns out he was a missing person
Who nobody missed at all

So the girls bought some land
And a roadside stand
Out on Highway 109
They sell Tennessee ham
And strawberry jam
And they don't
Lose any sleep at night
'Cause Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl!

We need a break!

Let's go out to the lake Earl!
We'll pack a lunch
And stuff you in the trunk Earl
Well is that all right?
Good Let's go for a ride Earl
Hey!
Well, hey hey hey!
Aww hey hey hey!
Well, hey hey hey
