The Bolton Stretch

The Bolton Stretch verse 1 He cracks a wicked smile, had his foot pressed to the floor    Flyin' down country roads that he's been down before      A One of just three men that the sheriff cannot catch (2x) And he's travelin' 90 miles an hour, down the Bolton Stretch     verse 2 The first time we had seen his face was back in '84 He walked right into old O'Hares, he robbed that liquor store      A The sheriff tried to catch him but the man he got away (2x) And he didn't show his face in town again until today     He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin                 Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again verse 3 He watches all the trees fly by, but doesn't seem to care Knows it's time to leave again, but doesn't know to where      A And though he stole a lot of money, it's not enough for bail (2x) And there are two blue lights behind him now, the sheriff's on his trail     He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin                 Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again verse 4 Since the day that he was born he spent his whole live livin' free With nothing but the loosest ties to friends and family No punishment will make him care about the things he's done (2x) And if he lives another 20 years he'll live 'em on the run     He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin               Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again
