Swingin'

Well, she was standing by the highway
In her boots and silver spurs
Gonna hitchhike to the yellow moon
When a Cadillac stopped for her
And she said, "Hey, nice to meet youAre you goin' my way?"
Yeah, that's when it happened
The world caught fire that day
And she went down swingin'
Yeah, she went down swingin'
Well, she was over twenty-one
In trouble with the law
And it didn't faze her none
She called her mother-in-law
And said, "I need a little moneyI knew I could count on you"
After that night in
VegasAnd the hell that we went through
We went down swingin'
Like Benny
GoodmanYeah, we went down swingin'
Yes we did
Moonlight on the interstate
She was 'cross the
Georgia line
Looked out the window feeling great
Yeah, it had to come in time
And she said, "I'm never goin' back"
She said, "At last I'm free"
I wish ma could see me now
She'd be so proud of me
Yeah, she went down swingin'
Like Glenn
MillerYeah, she went down swingin'
Like Tommy
DorseyYeah, she went down swingin'
Like Sammy
DavisShe went down swingin'
Like Sonny
