No Man's Land

|
|
Many years ago in Brushcreak Georgia
|
Molly Marlo was a virgin girl
|
She lived a mile from a fool named Barney Dawson
|
Hell bent on getting inside Molly's world
|
|
He caught her after church one Sunday morning
|
And took her body with his rough hard hands
|
And walked off laughing as she lay there crying
|
Since then she's been known as No Man's Land
|
|
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
|
Love could never grow in No Man's Land
|
The men all tried but she denied them
|
And they sighed and wrung their hands
|
But they couldn't go walking
|
In No Man's Land
|
|
Molly grew into a luscious beauty
|
Each man's head would turn as she walked by
|
And as their hot eyes watched her body moving
|
They'd swallow hard and shake their heads and sigh
|
|
Molly went to school and studdied nursing
|
Now you might laugh but it's an honest fact
|
The first year that she nursed at Millards Clinic
|
Six men pretended they had heart attacks
|
|
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
|
Love could never grow in No Man's Land
|
The men all tried but she denied them
|
And they sighed and wrung their hands
|
But they couldn't go walking
|
In No Man's Land
|
|
Years later Barney Dawson lay in prison
|
In feaverish pain that suffering shell of a man
|
He was glad to see the nurse from Millards Clinic
|
'Till he saw the burning eyes of No Man's Land
|
|
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
|
Love could never grow in No Man's Land
|
Barney cried but she denied him
|
And he prayed and wrung their hands
|
Now his soul's walking
|
Through No Man's Land
|
