She was 18, maybe 19
She had just dropped out of college
She was a waitress in a restaurant
On the edge of town
And I was young, dumb, maybe 21
Thirsty for the sting and sweetness from
The honey bee in front of me
Hey
Uh oh I was so in love
Yeah we were so young
Like lightning most unusual
Reacquainted by a mutual friend
Like something you'd see on TV
Yeah TV
The heavens thundered
And no man could part asunder this
Glorious union yeah baby
We were meant to be
One day like John Wayne
I stepped into the tragic mystery of this
Small-town beauty queen
That never got a crown
And all the bad boys and villains
All the cold hard killing
Yeah they don't come around no more
Baby they don't come around
One day
Baby one day
Wedding bells quit ringing
And life's low blows came out swinging
And the hero that she thought she had
Proved to be a clown
The hellish circumstances
Left us with a snowball's chances
Of ever getting anywhere
But this one-horse town
But then one day
I was saved
And I became your hero
Babe
Oh oh oh oh
And you deserve the happiness
Yeah the very best
One day like John Wayne
I stepped into the tragic mystery of this
Home-town beauty queen
That never got a crown
And all the bad boys and villains
All the stone-cold killing
They don't come around no more
Baby they don't come around
They don't come around no more
They don't come around no more
