lyrics

Opportunity came knocking for Johnny
To start spreading rumors all over town
It made a very sensational byline
That she bought the gun and shot him down
shot him down
shot him down
shot him down
Some say there are two sides to every story
They say quite often the truth lies in between
But when the darkest parts remain hidden
the fear and the terror are never seen
never seen
never seen
never seen
Concealing the bruises was easy
She was never one to wear her heart on her sleeve
Blacked out with broken ribs and bleeding
She never felt more afraid to leave
afraid to leave
afraid to leave
afraid to leave
She was startled from sleep
By a knock on the door
Two myterious women
Float across her floor
Dry yr tears child we're here to set you free
You've nowhere to run now can't you see
When the Virgin Mary introduced the ghost of Aileen
They said we think you'll agree
Johny needs to disappear and cease to be
Take this revolver from us take this revolver from us
Take this revolver from us and do it fast and clean
Fast and clean
