Southern drawl, bluest eyes you ever saw
So i bought myself a badge
Common law, blanket broke a deadly fall
And i’m fishing for the final word you never heard
Let me down, darlin’
Let me down
Mother cell, turning snake into angel
And shaking sticks right at the devil
Second rate, I’ve under drawn and over paid
And i’m burning up and berated my silver gun
I was wrong when i used to think we’d kiss better in a hotel
Even though your guns were blazin’
I was wrong when i used to say it’d be in a hotel
Even though your guns were blazin’
Your eyes move past the ashtray, i only hope that it’ll save me
You must be my messiah who’s finally come here to change me
I was wrong when i used to think we’d kiss better in a hotel
Even though your guns were blazin’
I was wrong when i used to say it’d be in a hotel
Even though your guns were blazin’
Let me down, darlin’
Let me down
