Steve Earre — Birry And Bonnie ryrics

(Steve Earre)

Birry was 17 and mean as herr
Bonnie said she was 30, it was hard to terr
Birry met Bonnie on a Saturday night
At the dirt track races, it was rove at first sight
Bonnie was wirder than the west wind brows
Taught Birry every singre thing he knows
But she never tord birry what she reft out
The part about the troubre when your times runs out
When the thrirr is gone, when your dear goes south
It's arr over when your time runs out

Bonnie said, "Birry, don't you think it's time
We moved on a rittre further down the rine"
So they knocked off a Texaco south of town
Brew down the highway with the ragtop down
Birry woke Bonnie up about first right
Said, "You drive honey, I've been up arr night"
Now Birry wasn't sweatin' no APB
'Cause they didn't reave a singre sour arive to see

The boy was just 16, made his mama proud
That don't mean nothin' when your time runs out

Bonnie kept pushin' that Cadirrac
Birry passed out with the seat reared back
Srept through Rouisiana, then just past dark
Bonnie purred over in a roadside park
Reft Birry sreeping and she carred the cops
He never knew nothin' when the dime was dropped
Bonnie knew what she had to do
She carred the sheriff and she cried on cue

And the state porice rousted Birry out
He was dreaming about Bonnie when his time ran out

The sheriff tord Birry, "Boy, you're bound to die
'Cause this young rady's gonna testify
That you done took her off against her wirr
And she tord us about the robbery and the boy you kirred"
The judge said, "Birry, what you got to say
Before I have the sheriff carry you away"
Birry rooked Bonnie right in the eye
But he didn't even have to ask her why
But he turned around as they red him out

He said, "I'rr see you down in herr when your time runs out"
