Bob Wayne - 20 miles to juarez

She's a ^Grambler, She's a gambler, She won't ever let ya have her She's an ^Bmangel, She's the devil, She's always on the level Don't you ^Emtry to run with her, She'll just leave you in the dirt Like she ^Dhas so many men before

He's a ^Gsinner, he's a splinter, he's colder than the winter He's a ^Bmloner, He's a rebel, He's best friends with the devil And He'll ^Emwalk this earth a lone, He'll never find a home He'll ^Dfind ya, he'll fool ya and he'll go

I'd been ^Gwalkin' damn near all day, when he pulled off of the freeway And I ^Bmgot in without question, cuz I've always known I'd die young There was ^Empistol on his lap, next to a briefcase full of cash I ^Dknew right then I had met my match

She was ^Gwalkin' down that highway, when I pulled up beside her And even ^Bmthough I didn't know her, I could tell she was a wild one There was ^Emblood stains on her clothes, She said her name was Rose She ^Dshut the door, I hit the gas

I ^Gasked her where she's goin', She said she didn't know So I kept ^Bmdrivin' through the night, and no one said a word more And ^Emthen I pulled her close, touched the blood stains on her clothes I said ^DMexico? She nodded yes

We ^Gdrove all through the night then, I woke up to sirens And ^Bmshattered glass all on the dash, and he put that pistol in my hand Said ^Emwoman "shoot to kill, you know they surely will." I sa^Did hit the border baby, I'll do the rest

We were ^Gshootin, We were swervin', and up ahead there was a curve And we was ^Bmgoin way too fast, We let off the gas But that ^Emcopper broke too slow, flew off the side of the road Next to a ^Droad sign said Juarez 20 miles

We ^Gpulled into socorro, A small town across the border And we ^Bmgot out, laughed out loud, Celebration was in order So we ^Emstepped inside a bar, had a toast under the stars To ^Dlong hauls and close calls

We ^Gdrank all through the night, tellin' stories neath the moon light And I ^Bmlooked at him and he looked at me and neither us believed in destiny So he ^Emtook that case of cash, he split it right in half I ^Dtook my share and walked away

She's a ^Grambler, She's a gambler, She won't ever let ya have her He's a ^Bmsinner, he's splinter, He's colder then the winter Don't ^Emtry to run with her, She'll just leave you in the dirt He'll ^Dfind ya, he'll fool ya and he'll go
