How she got that junk car runnin´ guess I´ll never know
It never ran but once and set to winters in the snow
Well imagine runnin´ out on me when I lay sound asleep Allegheny

Well my big mistake was thinkin´ she was something I could keep
She stole my winter´s food supply and something else I fear
My savin´s in the mattress have strangely disappeared
Now those who know me best knows he who robs me best beware Allegheny
I´m gonna call up the dogs and hunt you down drag you back here by the hair
Oh Allegheny something tells me you´re dis-satisfied
Well could it be because I´ve been your mail-order bride
There´s a half of you that´s French yeah and I need to crave a better style
And a half of you is Cherokee yeah and I´ve gone wild Allegheny

She´s got a head start on me as a crow flies half a day
And unless I miss my guess she´ll stop to rest in Monterey
But if I take the Knoxville Highway thirteen hours it will be Allegheny
Well she forgot I knew the shortcut I´ll be there in less than three
Oh Allegheny something tells me...
I signaled for my dogs to wait outside the hotel door
I described her to the desk clerk he said try the second floor
And then he mentioned she´s got company
And that marks the stranget´s doom Allegheny
I wish I was her so I could see my face when I bust into the room
Oh Allegheny something tells me...

Allegheny Allegheny come back here Allegheny Allegheny
