Modern day Bonnie and Clyde
Music video by Travis Tritt with Billy Bob Thornton (2000)
Well, it's a long way to Richmond Rolling north on 95 With a redhead riding shotgun And a pistol by my side Tearing down that highway Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde We met at a truck stop Johnson City, Tennesee I was gassin' 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 running at me Telling me to lay that hammer down "'Cause there's a man right behind me Doing his best to slow me down" Yeah, and it's a long way to Richmond Rolling north on 95 With a redhead riding shotgun And a pistol by my side Tearing down that highway Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde Well we pulled up to a motel In the middle of the night We were countin' all the money Smoking stolen Marlboro lights Lord we never saw 'em comin' 'Til they read us both our rights Yeah, and it's a long way to Richmond Rollin' north on 95 With a sheriff right beside me Pistol pointed at my side Such a disappointing ending For this modern day Bonnie and Clyde
