Karaoke Track: Goodbye Earl by The Chicks (Country Hits Monthly) - Karaoke Nerds

Mary Anne and Wanda
were the best of friends

All through

their high school days

Both members of the 4H club

Both active in the FFA

After graduation
Mary Anne went out

Lookin' for

a bright new world

Wanda looked all around

this town

And all she found was Earl

Well it wasn't two weeks

after she got married

That Wanda started

gettin' abused

She put on dark glasses

and long-sleeved blouses

And make-up

to cover her bruise

Well she finally got the nerve

to file for divorce
She let the law

take it from there

But Earl walked right through

that restraining order

And put her in intensive care

Right away Mary Anne

flew in from Atlanta

On a red eye midnight flight

Goodbye Earl

Those black-eyed peas

They tasted all right to me

Earl, you're feelin' weak

Why don't you
lay down and sleep

Earl, ain't it dark

Wrapped up in that tarp Earl

The cops came by

to bring Earl in
They searched their house

high and low

Then they tipped their hats

and said thank you ladies

If you hear from him

let us know

And it turns out he

was a missing person

Who nobody missed at all

So the girls bought some land

and a roadside stand

out on Highway 109

They sell Tennessee ham

and strawberry jam
And they don't

lose any sleep at night

'Cause Earl had to die

Goodbye Earl

We need a break

Let's go out to the lake

Earl, we'll pack a lunch

And stuff

you in the trunk Earl

Well is that all right?

Good, lefs go for a ride

Earl, hey!

Well hey hey hey

Well hey hey hey
