  			E                                                             
Well the bus pulled away 
     A 
In a roaring black cloud 
        B 
While I stood in the road 
            E 
And honey I hollered right out loud 
E 
Hey darlin' I love you 
    A 
Hey bus driver whoa 
        B 
But you can't stop a woman 
                     E 
When she's out of control 
      A               B           E 
She's crazy for leavin'I told her so 
E 
When the boys at the bus stop 
          B 
Just said man let her go 
      A                 B          E 
She's crazy for leavin' I told her so 
        A            E 
But you can't stop a woman 
           B      E 
When she's out of control 
E 
So I punched out my truck 
     A 
On a telephone pole 
         B 
Now she never looked back 
              E 
She just said go driver go 
E 
Well I know I could have caught her 
      A 
But I ran out of luck 
        B 
She was long gone to Lufkin 
                                  E 
By the time they cut me out of my truck 
      A               B           E 
She's crazy for leavin'I told her so 
E 
When the boys at the bus stop 
          B 
Just said man let her go 
      A                 B          E 
She's crazy for leavin' I told her so 
        A            E 
But you can't stop a woman 
           B      E 
When she's out of control 
 
SOLO 
 
E 
So I kicked and I cussed 
          A 
That old east Texas road 
          B 
I throwed rocks at my truck 
          E 
Which had busted my nose 
 
You add insult to injury  
A 
What do you get 
          B 
You get a bus stop full of honkies 
                E 
That don't ever forget 
      A                 B          E              
She's crazy for leavin' I told her so 
E                           B                  E 
And the bus depot lady said honey just let her go 
      A                 B          E 
She's crazy for leavin' I told her so 
        A           E 
But you can't stop a woman 
           B      E 
When she's out of control 
        A           E 
But you can't stop a woman 
           B      E 
When she's out of control
