[Verse 1]
Nineteen, left home
She’s a renegade with one goal
To find every man that did her wrong
A .45 tear ya down
You can’t get away from this smoke
Before you know it, you’re dead and gone

[Chorus]
Goes down smooth, burns like coal
Tastes like whiskey, fools the soul
Eats you up, won’t let go

Just like women on the road
Heaven-sent, hell below
Feels like love from years ago
Oh, the bitter taste of sweet revenge

[Verse 2]
She know how to bring the devil out a pastor
Skin you alive, I think this girl is a trapper
Just a bunch of low-down dirty ba*tards
Send ’em to the grave, ain’t the money that she’s after
She already took the law into her own hands
Drop dead, she could kill ’em all with one glance
Two revolvers, she gon’ teach that boy a new dance
Better not reach for your piece, you got no chance
When she’s coming for it

[Chorus]
Goes down smooth, burns like coal
Tastes like whiskey, fools the soul
Eats you up, won’t let go
Just like women on the road
Heaven-sent, hell below
Feels like love from years ago
Oh, the bitter taste of sweet revenge
Oh, the bitter taste of sweet revenge

Oh, the bitter taste of sweet revenge

[Interlude]
(??)

[Bridge]
Cold steel, no deal
Gotta find a place to lay low
But it’s hard to run from a raging bull
Time’s up, no hope
Can’t escape the flames before it goes
Ain’t no mercy where you’re going
Oh, the bitter taste of sweet revenge
