Text: Rodney Crowell. Diamonds & Dirt. She's Crazy for Leaving.

Well, the bus pulled away
In a roarin' black cloud
Well, I stood in the road
And honey, I hollered right out loud

Hey, darlin', I love ya
Hey, bus driver, woe
But you can't stop a woman
When she's out of control

She's crazy for leavin'
I told her so
And the boys at the bus stop
Just said, "Man, let her go"

She's crazy for leavin'
I told her so
But you can't stop a woman
When she's out of control

So I punched out my truck
On a telephone pole
No, she never looked back
She just said, "Go, driver, go?

Well, I know I coulda caught her
But I ran outta luck
She was long on to Lufkin
By the time they cut me out of my truck

She's crazy for leavin'
I told her so
And the boys at the bus stop
Just said, "Man, let her go?

She's crazy for leavin'
I told her so
But you can't stop a woman
When she's out of control

So I kicked and I cussed
That old East Texas road
I throwed rocks at my truck
Which had busted my nose

Ya add insult to injury
And what do ya get
Ya get a bus stop full of honkies
That don't ever forget

She's crazy for leavin'
I told her so
And the bus depot lady
Just said, "Hun, let her go"

She's crazy for leavin'
I told her so
But you can't stop a woman
When she's out of control
No, you can't stop a woman
When she's out of control

Ya know, she's probably
Already to Little Rock
