Wicked Calamity Jane Written by Bethany Joy Lenz and Jeff Cohen
The gypsy dances in circles and beckons your ears She knows your fance divines how to play to your fear She’s lost and lonesome and wounds everyone that she’s near but I miss her just the same Wicked Calamity Jane
Sparkling eyes are so tender and so terrified She bites you before you can love her before you can even try She’s up and she’s down and she’ll leave you the second you fight But I know her just the same Wicked Calamity Jane
Come on, come out to the fire the fire burns with our without you Come on, come out from the alamo you know it doesn’t protect you Hide in the shadows too long the whole world’s gonna forget you So lay down, lay down, lay down lay down your gun
She stares at the ghosts because power can make you anything she listens intently to voices that make her emotions sing She can’t be that far gone I’m not that far behind I can’t be that far gone she’s not that far behind
Come on, come out to the fire the fire burns with our without you Come on, come out from the alamo you know it doesn’t protect you Hide in the shadows too long the whole world’s gonna forget you So lay down, lay down, lay down lay down your gun
