You know Mary was a woman fine
She was living with a hard guy
Yeah, Mary got beat up
One to many times

She's a runaway
She's a runaway
Mary stole some money
And she got herself a gun
Then she shot her man down
Now she's on the run-un

She's a runaway
She's a run, runaway
Well she ain't lookin' back anymore
She said: Catch me if you can anymore

Ya know she didn't wanna do it
But he just pushed her to far
Everybody got a breakin' point
And baby there you are
She's a runaway
Run, run, run, runaway

She's a runaway
She's a run, runaway
I said: She ain't lookin' back anymore

She said: Catch me if you can anymore
Well, that's the story of mary and the gun
Ya know, she's alot tougher now
She's livin' on the run

She's a runaway
She's a run, runaway
Run, run, run, runaway
She's a run, runaway
