VERSE 1
I met her while in France
We had a brief romance
She rubbed my arm I rubbed her arm
And then we dirty danced
She move down to LA
She met a dude OK
And sawed her head off with a knife

CHORUS
Now she's gone away......yeah
In a way.......yeah
In a way.......yeah
In a way.......yeah
Went away now

VERSE 2
California's nice
It's snowed there once or twice
Bullets fly across the sky
The path is smooth and tight
I caught one at the bus-stop
He set him in a mint jar
I felt the warm blood role down

Song Order: VERSE 1
            CHORUS
            VERSE 2
            CHORUS
            VERSE 1
            CHORUS
