Stereo-typical preachers wife,
Everybody loved her, she was so nice,
Never told a soul bout the things he did,
‘till she took a bottle to the back of his head,
They say she simply told 911,
He deserved what I just done
(chorus) then break(chorus no words)
Everybodys proud of Mary Lou,
Got as full ride to a private school,
Gonna be a doctor or a lawyer some day,
She’s Seventeen and three months late,
We all thought that shed never been kissed, but
She doesnt know who the daddy is,
( Chorus)
WOh OH Oh Oh Oh… sleepy little town… x3
