Baby you need to put that bottle down Put that gun back in the drawer I hear your man's been out there running around You're hell'bent to even up the score Don't let the devil get you by the throat You pull that trigger girl that's all she wrote Satan's waiting for you down the road Oh which way will you go Your hands are shaking and your knees are weak Pistol pointed at the door You're tired of wearing bruises on your cheek And being treated like a whore Don't let the devil get you by the throat You pull that trigger girl that's all she wrote Satan's waiting for you down the road Oh which way will you go Don't let the devil get you by the throat You pull that trigger girl that's all she wrote Satan's waiting for you down the road Oh which way will you go Oh Heaven only knows Baby you need to put that bottle down Put that gun back in the drawer
