Modern Day Bonnie and Clyde Lyrics

Modern Day Bonnie And Clyde

By Travis Tritt

Well it's a long way to Richmond

Rollin north on 95

With a red head ridin' shotgun

And a pistol by my side

Tearin' down that highway

Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde

We met at a truck stop

Johnson City Tennessee

I was gas'n up my Firebird

When I heard her callin' me

Said which way are you headed boy

Do you need some company

She had me stoppin' at a Quick Mart

Before we made it out of town

Next thing she was runnin' at me

Tellin' me to lay that hammer down

'Cause there's a man right behind me

Doing his best to slow me down

Well its a long way to Richmond

Rollin north on 95

With a red head ridin' shotgun

And a pistol by my side

Tearin down that highway

Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde

INSTRUMENTAL

Well we pulled up to a motel

In the middle of the night

We were countin' all the money

Smokin stolen Marlboro Lights

Lord we never saw 'em coming

'Till they read us both our rights

And its a long way to Richmond

Rollin north on 95

With a sheriff right beside me

Pistol pointed at my side

Such a dissapointing ending

Ror this modern day Bonnie and Clyde

INSTRUMENTAL
