Lyrics Travis Tritt – Modern Day Bonnie And Clyde

Well it’s a long way to Richmond
Rollin’ north on 95
With a redhead ridin’ shotgun
And a pistol by my side

We met at a truckstop
Johnson City, Tennessee
I was gassin’ up my Firebird
When I heard her callin’ me…mmm hmm
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 runnin’ at me
Tellin’ me to lay that hammer down
‘Cause there’s a man right behind me
Doin’ his best to slow me down

Yeah and it’s a long way to Richmond
Rollin’ north on 95
With a redhead ridin’ shotgun

And a pistol by my side
Tearin’ down that highway
Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde

Woo…

Well we pulled up to a motel
In the middle of the night
We were countin’ all the money
Smokin’ stolen Marlboro lights
Lord we never saw ’em comin’

Yeah and it’s a long way to Richmond
Rollin’ north on 95
With a sheriff right beside me
Pistol pointed at my side
Oh, Lord…such a disappointing ending
For this modern day Bonnie and Clyde
Yeah…

Whoa
Well…
Woo…hoo
