No Mans Land

	  		
G          D7                G 
Many years ago in Brushcreek Georgia 

            C            D7 
Molly Marlo was a virgin girl 

    C                                     G 
She lived a mile from a fool named Barney Dawson 

                     D7             G 
Hell bent on getting inside Molly's world 


                    D7                G 
He caught her after church one Sunday morning 

                  C                   D7 
And took her body with his rough hard hands 

    C                                    G 
And walked off laughing as she lay there crying 

                      D7                G 
Since then she's been known as No Man's Land 


      Em                 G 
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land  

           Em                     G 
Love could never grow in No Man's Land 

            C 
The men all tried but she denied them  

         G                      Em 
And they sighed and wrung their hands 

                              D7          G 
But they couldn't go walking  in No Man's Land 


           D7              G 
Molly grew into a luscious beauty 

                      C                  D7 
Each man's head would turn as she walked by 

       C                               G 
And as their hot eyes watched her body moving 

                        D7                    G 
They'd swallow hard and shake their heads and sigh 


              D7                 G 
Molly went to school and studied nursing 

                        C              D7 
Now you might laugh but it's an honest fact 

    C                                       G 
The first year that she nursed at Milliards Clinic 

                  D7             G 
Six men pretended they had heart attacks 


      Em                 G 
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land  

           Em                     G 
Love could never grow in No Man's Land 

            C 
The men all tried but she denied them  

         G                      Em 
And they sighed and wrung their hands 

                              D7          G 
But they couldn't go walking  in No Man's Land 


                   D7            G 
Years later Barney Dawson lay in prison 

                      C                    D7 
In feverish pain that suffering shell of a man 

       C                                    G 
He was glad to see the nurse from Milliards Clinic 

                        D7               G 
Till he saw the burning eyes of No Man's Land 


      Em                 G 
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land 
   
           Em                     G 
Love could never grow in No Man's Land 

       C 
Barney cried but she denied him  

       G                    Em 
And he prayed and wrung his hands 

                        D7               G 
Now his soul's walking  through No Man's Land
