Many years ago in Brushcreek Georgia
BbC7
Molly Marlo was a virgin girl
BbF
She lived a mile from a fool named Barney Dawson
C7F
Hell bent on getting inside Molly's world
C7F
He caught her after church one Sunday morning
BbC7
And took her body with his rough hard hands
BbF
And walked off laughing as she lay there crying
C7F
Since then she's been known as No Man's Land
DmF
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
DmF
Love could never grow in No Man's Land
Bb
The men all tried but she denied them
FDm
And they sighed and wrung their hands
C7F
But they couldn't go walking in No Man's Land
C7F
Molly grew into a luscious beauty
BbC7
Each man's head would turn as she walked by
BbF
And as their hot eyes watched her body moving
C7F
They'd swallow hard and shake their heads and sigh
C7F
Molly went to school and studied nursing
BbC7
Now you might laugh but it's an honest fact
BbF
The first year that she nursed at Milliards Clinic
C7F
Six men pretended they had heart attacks
DmF
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
DmF
Love could never grow in No Man's Land
Bb
The men all tried but she denied them
FDm
And they sighed and wrung their hands
C7F
But they couldn't go walking in No Man's Land
C7F
Years later Barney Dawson lay in prison
BbC7
In feverish pain that suffering shell of a man
BbF
He was glad to see the nurse from Milliards Clinic
C7F
Till he saw the burning eyes of No Man's Land
DmF
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
DmF
Love could never grow in No Man's Land
Bb
Barney cried but she denied him
FDm
And he prayed and wrung his hands
C7F
Now his soul's walking through No Man's Land
