Bonnie said, "Billy, don't you think it's time We moved on a little further down the line" So they knocked off a Texaco south of town Blew down the highway with the ragtop down Billy woke Bonnie up about first light Said, "You drive honey, I've been up all night" Now Billy wasn't sweatin' no APB 'Cause they didn't leave a single soul alive to see The boy was just 16, made his mama proud That don't mean nothin' when your time runs out Bonnie kept pushin' that Cadillac Billy passed out with the seat reared back Slept through Louisiana, then just past dark Bonnie pulled over in a roadside park Left Billy sleeping and she called the cops He never knew nothin' when the dime was dropped Bonnie knew what she had to do She called the sheriff and she cried on cue And the state police rousted Billy out He was dreaming about Bonnie when his time ran out The sheriff told Billy, "Boy, you're bound to die 'Cause this young lady's gonna testify That you done took her off against her will And she told us about the robbery and the boy you killed" The judge said, "Billy, what you got to say Before I have the sheriff carry you away" Billy looked Bonnie right in the eye But he didn't even have to ask her why But he turned around as they led him out He said, "I'll see you down in hell when your time runs out"
