You know Mary was a woman fine
She was living with a hard guy
Yeah, Mary got beat up
One too many times
She's a runaway
She's a runaway
Mary stole some money
And she got herself a gun
Then she shot her man down
Now she's on the run
She's a runaway
She's a run, runaway
Well, she ain't looking back anymore
She said, "Catch me if you can, anymore"
Y'know she didn't wanna do it
But he just pushed her too far
Everybody got a breaking point
And, baby, there you are
She's a runaway
Run, run, run, runaway
I said she ain't looking back anymore
She said, "Catch me if you can, anymore"
Well, that's the story
Of Mary and the gun
Y'know she's a lot tougher now
She's living on the run
She's a runaway
She's a run, runaway
Run, run, run, runaway
She's a runaway
