Earl Had To Die
Dixie Chicks

Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends

All through their high school days

Both members of the 4-H Club

Both active in the FFA


After graduation Mary Anne went out

Lookin' for a bright new world

Wanda looked all around this town

And all she found was Earl


Well it wasn't two weeks after she got married

That Wanda started gettin' abused

She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses

And make-up to cover a bruise


Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce

She let the law take it from there

But Earl walked right through that restraining order

And put her in intensive care


Right away Mary Anne flew in from Atlanta

On a red eye midnight flight

She held Wanda's hand as they worked out a plan

And it didn't take long to decide


That Earl had to die

Goodbye Earl

Those black eyed peas

They tasted all right to me, Earl


You're feeling weak

Why don't you lay down

And sleep Earl? Ain't it dark

Wrapped up in that tarp, Earl?


The cops came to bring Earl in

They searched the house high and low

Then they tipped their hats

And said thank you ladies

If you hear from him let us know


Well the weeks went by and

Spring turned to summer

And summer faded into fall

And it turns out he was a missing person

Who nobody missed at all


So the girls bought some land

And a roadside stand

Out on Highway 109

They sell Tennessee ham

And strawberry jam and they don't

Lose any sleep at night 'cause


Earl had to die

Goodbye Earl

We need a break

Let's go out to the lake Earl


We'll pack a lunch

And stuff you in the trunk Earl

Well is that all right

Good, let's go for a ride Earl hey
