Shes Crazy for Leavin by Guy Clark Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1981

Well, the bus pulled away in a roaring black cloud
I stood in the road, honey, I hollered right out loud
"Hey darlin’, I love ya, hey bus driver whoa!"
But you can’t stop a woman who is out of control

She’s crazy for leavin’, I told her so
And the boys at the bus stop just said, "Man, let her go!"
She’s crazy for leavin’, I told her so
But you can’t stop a woman who is out of control

So I punched out my truck on a telephone pole
She never looked back, she just said, "Go, driver, go!"
I know I could have stopped her, but I ran out of luck
She was long gone to Lufkin by the time they got me out of the truck

She’s crazy for leavin’, I told her so
And the boys at the bus stop just said, "Fool, let her go!"
She’s crazy for leavin’, I told her so
But you can’t stop a woman who is out of control

So I kicked and I cussed that old East Texas road
I throwed rocks at my truck which had busted my nose
Add insult to injury, what do you get?
A bus stop full of honkys that don’t never forget
She’s crazy for leavin’, I told her so
And the boys at the bus stop just said, "Man, let her go!"
She’s crazy for leavin’, I told her so
But you can’t stop a woman who is out of control

She’s crazy for leavin’, I told her so
And the bus depot lady just said, "Hon, I don't know"
She’s crazy for leavin’, I told her so
But you can’t stop a woman who is out of control
