Oh, why? Oh, mama, mama, mama I just shot a man down In Central Station It's a twenty-two, I call her Peggy Sue When she fits right down in my shoes What you expect me to do if you're playing me for a fool? I will lose my cool and reach for my firearm I didn't mean to lay him down But it's too late to turn back now Don't know what I was thinking Now he's no longer living

FOUR YEARS LATER. ELIZABETH'S POV The music lyrics pounded in my eyes very loudly as I danced to the song.
