No Man's Land

Lyrics

Many years ago in Brushcreak Georgia
 Molly Marlo was a virgin girl
 She lived a mile from a fool named Barney Dawson
 Hell bent on getting inside Molly's world
 He caught her after church one Sunday morning
 And took her body with his rough hard hands
 And walked off laughing as she lay there crying
 Since then she's been known as No Man's Land
 Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
 Love could never grow in No Man's Land
 The men all tried but she denied them
 And they sighed and wrung their hands
 But they couldn't go walking
 In No Man's Land
 Molly grew into a luscious beauty
 Each man's head would turn as she walked by
 And as their hot eyes watched her body moving
 They'd swallow hard and shake their heads and sigh
 Molly went to school and studied nursing
 Now you might laugh but it's an honest fact
 The first year that she nursed at Millards Clinic
 Six men pretended they had heart attacks
 Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
 Love could never grow in No Man's Land
 The men all tried but she denied them
 And they sighed and wrung their hands
 But they couldn't go walking
 In No Man's Land
 Years later Barney Dawson lay in prison
 In feverish pain, that suffering shell of a man
 He was glad to see the nurse from Millards Clinic
 'Til he saw the burning eyes of No Man's Land
 Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
 Love could never grow in No Man's Land
 Barney cried but she denied him
 And he prayed and wrung his hands
 Now his soul's walking
 Through No Man's Land
