Lyrics

Born with a red mean streak
and blessed a sharp tack mind
nerves made with steel
she's a prophet's midnight deal

Stroke of the clock time to go
nobody's in the know
left all alone
her home was never real

In a flash of homemade dress
shot a man down
shot a man down
Oh, Beatrice you'll never miss your mark

Wedding bells and prison cells
for her it's only one
dance with the devil
and soon it will be done

Blue steel shine
doorknob turns
he's come to beat her down
bursts like a diamond
a crime that needs this town

In a flash of homemade dress
shot a man down
shot a man down
Oh, Beatrice you'll never miss your mark
