Lyrics

Night In Gale
Buccino/DeMaria/DeMaria


Verse 1
Sally was the Gale County gossip
Too much time and bitterness on her hands
She went down to the old bar and tavern
Late one night crying how she'd just seen Dan
Down by the river knee deep in sin
Thought she saw him with Jezebel cheating
Prayed God forgive him, wife Mary not to know
Told the whole bar not to tell a soul

Chorus
Night in Gale, one night in Gale
People spoke, hearts broke
Spread like a wild fire tale
One night in Gale, night in Gale

Verse 2
News spread to Mary at 12:05
The man of her dreams had betrayed her
With 66 pills, torn picture of her wedding day
She slipped away from life with a stranger
No note at all, phone smashed the glass door
She wasn't Mary Gardner from Gale anymore
There's so many theories on what went wrong
She always seemed so goddamn strong

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
Sally doesn't go outside anymore
She stares at nurses and hospital floors
Dan never cheated but he bears the blame
'Cause Mary believed it and that's why he can't hold her again

Repeat Chorus
