Lyrics

[00:02.85] Standin by your window in pain
[00:07.74] A pistol in your hand
[00:12.52] And I beg you, dear Molly, girl
[00:17.52] Try and understand your man the best you can.
[01:48.44][00:56.40][00:23.15] Across The Great Divide,
[01:00.19][00:25.62] Just grab your hat, and take that ride
[01:05.40][00:30.64] Get yourself a bride
[01:09.18][00:34.46] And bring your children down to the river side
[00:39.20] I had a goal in my younger days
[00:44.38] I nearly wrote my will
[00:48.23] But I changed my mind for the better
[00:52.44] I'm at the still, had my fill and I'm fit to kill
[01:14.17] Pinball machine, and a queen
[01:18.59] I nearly took a bust
[01:22.83] Tried to keep my hands to myself
[01:27.78] Ya say it's a must, but who can ya trust?
[01:31.49] Harvest moon shinin' down from the sky
[01:35.85] A weary sign for all
[01:40.98] I'm gonna leave this one horse town
[01:45.04] Hadn't stall till the fall, now I'm gonna crawl!
[02:05.79] Now Molly dear, don't ya shed a tear
[02:10.28] Your time will surely come
[02:14.43] you'll feed your man chicken every Sunday
[02:18.89] Now tell me, hon, what-cha done with the gun
[02:23.06] Across The Great Divide
[02:26.68] Just grab your hat and take that ride
[02:32.68] Get yourself a bride
[02:35.67] And bring your children down to the river side.
