Double Time
Sixteen, Beauty Queen, Daddy says she's mighty fineCracked up dope fiend, He makes illegal moonshineTells her sister she's the best, no one else can beat herCrazy ass looks out the window, schemes a plan to meet herWalks alone into the alley, this girl is so damn senselessHe jumps out from behind the dumpster, knowing she's defenselessCops find her bagHe stole the tagDrives her down past the border, buys her a new lifeLate one night when he's asleep, she picks up a knifeLeaves him in a pool of blood, she's running for the doorshe knows that it's the end for him, yet still goes back for moreDrives the car back to the states, Daddy's sick with gleeSister rung and hugs the girl, asks her where is he?She tells the story once again, she sees her sister paleThen she knows the truths sunk in, They all hear her wail.Cops at the border trailed her all the wayThey catch and cuff her , Daddys begs her to stay1 Count of homocide, She did it in cold bloodBack down to the border, her eyes begin to floodShe begs them for another wayShes locked up 25 to life they sayDown here the punishment always fits the crimeLife's not easy doin' double time
