She [Bm] grew up hard and she grew up fast in a town called New Orleans.
Got beat up bad by her old man, started hitching up to Tennessee.
[Em] Caught a ride where the trucker said he'd get her there, but it really was Texas bound.
[Bm] She asked where we're going, he said shut up woman, grabbed her hair and held her down.
But Liza, she wasn't your average girl, she had a pistol down in her boot.
She pulled it out, pointed it at him and said, I ain't afraid to shoot.
[E] But he didn't stop, so she shot him twice, big old [Em] truck began to swirl.
[Bm] Then she jammed the brakes and tossed him out, died there on that curb.
[G] [F#] Now Liza's [Bm] on the run.
[G] She got a pretty [F#] face and a fully [Bm] loaded gun.
[G] She got long black [C#] hair and evil [Bm] in her eyes.
[G] Don't you mess with [F#] her, you might not make it out alive.
[Bm]
The truck turned it around, looks like she's got a change of plan.
Want to drive for a while, find a cheap hotel, try to rest a while if she can.
[E]
She got out and she started walking when she heard this crazy sound.
[Bm] Went back to the truck and she opened it up, never guessed what Liza found.
[B]
There's three girls laying there, tied up on the ground.
She cut them loose and they started talking all about this crazy house.
[Em] Said the place was full of money and guns, enough to [F#] go [Em] around.
[Bm] So they jumped in the truck and they started back, they're gonna take it down.
[G] [F#] Now Liza's [Bm] on the run.
[G] She got three new [F#] friends and a fully [Bm] loaded gun.
She [D] got long black [F#] hair and evil [Bm] in her eyes.
[G] Now they're on their [F#] way, they're gonna get [Bm] paid tonight.
[G] [F#] [Bm]
[D] [F#m]
[G] [F#] [Bm]
[G] So [F#] [Bm]
they circled the house, three around back, Liza took the front door.
They all walked in and some doped up hombres passed out on the floor.
All four girls put their guns to their heads and
They killed all but [G] one and left him alive [Bm] long enough to tell him where the money was.
[G] [F#] Now Liza's [Bm] on the run.
[G] She got a pretty [F#] face and a fully [Bm] loaded gun.
[G] She got long black [F#] hair and evil [Bm] in her eyes.
