Out of school
When just sixteen
Outlaw child
Drama queen
Tossed by the angels
Dressed in black
Like an out of town thug
They don’t want back
Mad Maddie
Devil in a gray lace gown

Big plans
When just a kid
Grew up doing
What her daddy did
She don’t play favorites
She won’t back down
Mad Maddie
Devil in a gray lace gown

Charmed her way
To the mountaintop
Knocking of rivals
Paying off cops
Numbers and rackets
And bootleg gin
Painting the town an’
Living in sin
Mad Maddie
Devil in a gray lace gown

Had big plans
When just a kid
Grew up doing
What her daddy did
She won’t play favorites
She won’t back down
Mad Maddie
Devil in a gray lace gown

Big, big plans
But just a kid
Grew up doing
What the ol’ man did
Don’t play favorites
Won’t back down
Mad Maddie
Devil in a gray lace gown
