Verse:
   Well, she was standing by the highway
   In her boots and silver spurs
   Gonna hitchhike to the yellow moon
   When a Cadillac stopped for her
   And she said, "Hey, nice to meet you, are you goin' my way?"
   Yeah, that's when it happened
   The world caught fire that day

Chorus: 2x
   And she went down swingin'
   Yeah, she went down swingin'

Verse:
  Well, she was over twenty-one
  In trouble with the law
  And it didn't faze her none
  She called her mother-in-law
  And said I need a little money
  I knew I could count on you
  After that night in Vegas
  And the hell that we went through

Chorus: 2x
  We went down swingin'
  Like Benny Goodman
  Yeah, we went down swingin'

Verse:
 Moonlight on the interstate
 She was 'cross the Georgia line
 Looked out the window feeling great
 Yeah, it had to come in time
 And she said I'm never goin' back
 She said at last I'm free
 I wish ma could see me now, she'd be so proud of me

Chorus:
 She went down swingin'
 Like Glenn Miller
 Yeah, she went down swingin'
 Like Tommy Dorsey
 Yeah, she went down swingin'
 Like Sammy Davis
 She went down swingin'
 Like Sonny Liston
