Showdown!

Don’t look now
The skies are growin’ hazy
All around you
Gonna hunt you down
Don’t look now
The crowds are goin’ crazy
All around you
Clearin’ out of town
Don’t look now
The light is gettin’ dimmer
All around you
An approaching flood
Don’t look now
The devil’s men are comin’
They surround you
And they’re smellin’ blood
Hammer down
Clear out of town
Bandit boys
Without a destination
Often sucked in
To a life of crime
Barging in
Like some hallucination
Stopping traffic
And stopping time
Take a part
In sticky situations
And you lay low
Fight another day
Payback’s here
You knew the day was comin’
And you get down
On your knees and pray
Soon as you took ta gunnin’
You thought I’d take ta runnin’
But I won’t bend or bow or break
To anyone or anybody
Don’t look now
The skies are goin’ hazy
All around you
And the Kid’s in town
Don’t look now
The skies are goin’ hazy
All around you
Gonna take you down
Don’t look now
The skies are goin’ hazy
All around you
Fillin’ up with gray
Don’t look now
The skies are goin’ hazy
And you’ll never
Ever get away
You realize
End of the line

Blow Up The Moon
04:57

(verse1)
Yeah I'm still the same ole A-hole
That you used to love before.
Yeah I'm still the same ole A-hole
now just a little bit more
The truth they said was like sunshine
They used to say it was good for you
Don't go forgettin bout the moonlight
And all the damage that it can do
(chorus)
So let's blow up the moon
And not a moment too soon
Rainin darkness down on everyone
Then maybe they'll all see
How dark dark it is for me
To live without
the only light you've ever known
(verse2)
Feels like the tide's a headin out this time
And it aint never comin back
I don't know what I can do this time
To keep my life on track
So boys break out you're guns
Yeah the biggest ones you got
Just make sure your aim is true
You know you only get one shot
(chorus)
So let's blow up the moon
And not a moment too soon
Rainin darkness down on everyone
Then maybe they'll all see
How dark dark it is for me
To live without
the only light you've ever known
(solo)
(verse3)
And if the moon weren't there
way up in the air
laughin as it's hangin over me
Maybe I wouldn't see
That you're not here with me
And I'll have to walk this dark ole world all alone
(chorus)
So let's blow up the moon
And not a moment too soon
Rainin darkness down on everyone
Then maybe they'll all see
How dark dark it is for me
To live without
the only light you've ever known
(chorus)
So let's blow up the moon
And not a moment too soon
Rainin darkness down on everyone
Then maybe they'll all see
How dark dark it is for me
To live without
the only light you've ever known

Yeah I'll do it
If nobody will
Cause I know what's gotta be done
It's hard work
And a dirty mess
But that don't mean it can't be no fun
When you get down to it
Yeah down in the hole
It's just movin around some dirt
I know it aint much
But it's all I can do
To try and help ease the hurt
When you put 'em into the hole
It get's so damp and cold
There aint no reachin 'em now
There's just,fillin in an old dirt pit
Where their body lies,
Where their soul used to sit
So I get up
Grab my spade
And start to walk across the field
Avoid the mourners
Maybe hear a story
Like that one about how they got killed
Loved ones cryin
Preacher's talkin about peace
As they all bow their heads
Maybe that's it
Maybe that's the problem
Nobody misses you til you're dead
When you put 'em into the hole
It get's so damp and cold
There aint no reachin 'em now
There's just,fillin in an old dirt pit
Where their body lies,
Where their soul used to sit
This rows filled up
This one is too
Man there's bodies everywhere
Pick you a spot
That's if you can find one
Except them last two over there
Yeah them two are mine
For me and the wife
In case I ever have to put her down
You want safe
Well there aint much safer
Than six feet beneath the ground
When I first started here
I just didn't know fear
Now it's time for my final shift
And it's weird
At the end of the day
Knowing how hard you worked diggin your own grave

Con Man
03:27
|

(verse1)
May not be a killer
Damn sure not a saint
Makes em think they're getting
Just exactly what they aint
Knowing you can help them
Telling them you can't
you're a con man
(verse2)
He likes to make a dollar
he likes to make it quick
he likes to make his livin
off the poor and the sick
If they ever bring charges
you know they'll never stick
you're a con man
(verse3)
You been called a hustler
you been called a crook
You aint got no limits
so you don't play by the book
guess here being slimy
Helps you slide right off the hook
you're a con man
(verse4)
Dirty deals and dirty work
is all part of your plan
a liar, a conniver
with their blood all on your hands
I hope they throw the book
when they make you take the stand
you're a con man
solo
(verse5)
Drive your mail order bride
all around the town
thinkin that you're slick
when you're really just a clown
I'll be there the day
when they tear your billboards down
you're a con man
(verse6)
don't know how you'll take it
but I hope you take it bad
hope you get the message
and I hope it makes you mad
you said you never left
but we damn sure wish you had
you're a con man

Yeah I'm in here for you
Lovin you
Yeah I'm in here for you
And only you
Yeah I'm in here for you
Lovin you
Lovin you
And only you
Do you know where we are
Can't you tell
Don't you smell the sulphur
This aint heaven, this is hell
Cause in this place
There's no you only me
Haunted by your sweet face
For my eternity
And I'm in here for you
And only you
I'm in here for you
Lovin you
I'm in here for you
Lovin you
lovin you
I been lovin you
If I had my way
On how things were done
I'd go back to that day
And never bought that gun
(solo1)
As everything
Begins to set in
I'm not in here for love
I'm in here for sin
And I'm in here for you
Lovin you
I'm in here for you
Only you
I'm in here for you
Lovin you
I'm in here for you
And only you
(solo2)
Please forgive my ways
Please forgive my past
But do not forgive my love
For my love was built to last
On the day
I passed away
My loved ones gathered round
Had nothin good left to say
And as they put me
In that shallow grave
They knew i was the one
That just could not be saved
I'm in here for you
Lovin you
Lovin you
And only you
I'm in here for you
Lovin you
Lovin you
I been lovin you

You wanna see my gun
yeah it's where I keep my bullets
Gonna take aim at your heart
Then I'm gonna pull you through it
You know it's never easy

You wanna see my gun
You wanna see my heart

You know it's never easy
to sit and watch it die
Sure you had some fun
Now, you wanna see my gun

Take A Ride

Verse1
I don't mean to startle you dear
But I just had to see
If you're an apparition
Or a perfect walking dream
I've known infatuation
I've known the fleeting kiss
I've known my share of lust
But it aint never been like this
Chorus1
My cards are on the table
My heart is on the line
my meter's running
You wanna take a ride?
Do you wanna take a ride?
Verse2
Forgive the paranoia baby
Don't wanna go too fast
Got to outrun the law,the lawyers
Present tense and past
Try not to get excited
Try not to hold your breath
Honey let's close up the windows
Or we might just freeze to death
Chorus2
Your cards are on the table
Your heart is on the line
That's a big ole world honey
You wanna take a ride?
Do you wanna take a ride?
(solo - verse+chorus)
Verse3
I need a solid answer
I need to know the truth
We'll trip the light fandago
We'll make some living proof
Perhaps we go to heaven
Perhaps we go to hell
Perhaps we better run away
Perhaps we may as well
Chorus3
Get it on the table
Get it on the line
Get it on to Tuscaloosa
Let's go take a ride
Jump into that wagon
Point it down the line
We'll work it out tomorrow
Let's go take a ride
Let's go take a ride

If I Don't Look At You
07:37

verse1
I walk in the door
keys fall on the floor
without warning
As I walk down the hall
shadows dance on the wall
and they're growing
Then as I open the door
my heart spilled onto the floor
when I saw you
You didn't utter a word
not a sound to be heard
as my world fell through
chorus
If I don't look at you
you can't see me cryin
If I don't look at you
you won't see no tears
If I don't look at you
I can't you're lyin
If I don't look at you
I'll just think you're still here
verse2
Now I see you again
it's been a month or two
since I saw you
I fake my how are you's
and asking how you do
but I'm stallin
It's just a matter of time
til she hands me a line
but I aint fallin
Said she had a good time
I should drop here a line
but I aint callin
chorus
If I don't look at you
you can't see me cryin
If I don't look at you
you won't see no tears
If I don't look at you
I can't you're lyin
If I don't look at you
I'll just think you're still here
(solo1)
verse3
You were mine
and you were dyin
to get where you were goin
half the things you did
to drive me out of my mind
without even knowin
And I didn't see
how bein with me
was makin you lonely
I'd be perfectly fine
if you were only mine
and mine only
chorus
If I don't look at you
you can't see me cryin
If I don't look at you
you won't see no tears
If I don't look at you
I can't you're lyin
If I don't look at you
I'll just think you're still here
chorus
If I don't look at you
you can't see me cryin
If I don't look at you
you won't see no tears
If I don't look at you
I can't you're lyin
If I don't look at you
I'll just think you're still here
