Belinda Rae
The presses barely stopped
your name was getting hot
"how could she do it-how could she break the law"
misguided hometown bride
bank robber by your side
turning the tables, you left the whole town in awe
Belinda Rae-you made the news today
set me up and knocked me down in Sante Fe
I'm a fool to play my heart against your way
now your'e runnin' and your'e laughin'
Belinda Rae
You made me promise you
my lawless days were through
"life can be simple-why do we have to run"
you made me such a clown
keepin' your demon down
'till they put me away then you took my car and my gun
Belinda Rae-you made the news today
set me up and knocked me down in Sante Fe
I'm a fool to play my heart against your way
now your'e runnin' and your'e laughin'
Belinda Rae
The A.P. wire said "anonymous tip"
from a dirty blonde sank my ship
now America's sweetheart sports a gun
and a primer black 351
guess I taught you a little too well
stuck inside this prison cell
wonder what bank you're gonna hit today
Belinda Rae-you made the news today
set me up and knocked me down in Sante Fe
I'm a fool to play my heart against your way
now your'e runnin' and your'e laughin'
Belinda Rae
You're runnin' and you're laughin'
