Marylou by The Rambling Wheels Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I knew I should have stayed
When you told me to wait outside
Why do you never listen to me darling?
Oh honey, I must confess
You're still the prettiest girl
Even in a blood stained dress, oh darling

[Pre-Chorus]
But sheriff Webber took the shot
I watched you stumble to the ground
Stood in shock as you fell down

[Chorus]
Marylou, all the men you've killed
Will be there waiting for you
Marylou, I will surely join you soon
Cause the simple fact is
I can't live, Marylou

[Verse 2]
But I won't let your life
Have been lost in vain
I'll rip out the bastard's heart, oh darling
I will feed him to the pigs, I'll take you to saddle creek
We'll spend our last moments together
[Pre-Chorus]
We'll watch our final sunset
I'll smoke my last cigarette
Wipe my tears and say goodbye

[Chorus]
Marylou, all the men you've killed
Will be there waiting for you
Marylou, I will surely join you soon
Cause the simple fact is
I can't live, Marylou

[Outro]
I look up to the sky
I see our lives flash before my eyes
Now on my knees, feel the cold steel against my temple
And as I fall to the ground
I wear a smile cause
Mary-Lou, here I come
