lyrics

Many lies have been told to save this man,
many widows been made
to bring him back to Jesus, to bring him back to us.

And a killer is born
like the light of a star:
knocking at my door
long after the thing that burns
went quiet in the dark.

Baby sister went gone
and a search party formed,
found her where she slept
with a pack of wild horses
and we don’t know why we wept.

Everyone has friends with guns:
you better time the weapon right.

When there’s money on your head,
when your time is in the red,
like my momma always said,
if you shoot you better shoot for the head.

There’s no treasure worth the rent
on a place to bury it.
Like my momma always said,
even the beautiful come back from the dead.
