This Way to the EGRESS - Lyle's Tale

Текст песни

That moonshine liquors gone against the law, forever long their bustin down
these walls.
In his wife’s eyes it’s a lonely rain, that bounty on his head went up again.
His daddy always said you’ll be on the run, go on down to Molly’s fetch
yourself a gun.
He cleaned it up rolled around stole a horse right outta town,
then he disappeared he’s never found.
He won’t anticipate this mornings death, opened up the window, drew in his last
cold breath.
It’s time like these he always seems to smile, forget the hard times and be gone awhile.
His smile drops as they crash through his door, ducks away grabs his gun fires
from the floor.
They nick his face he makes the shot, they tumble down he’s out the lot leaves
them with a grin, he wins again.
In every town he’s at he kills three men, one for his mother two for his kin.
His daddy’s voice it’s always screaming in, son you’re a monster show them
where you’ve been
He’ll shoot ya dead and scrape off all your skin, with hopes to get a chance to live again.
This milly man he ain’t not worth your spit, he’ll go and shoot your momma
throw her in the pits.
Youre staring through the eye of his gun, gonna end up dead just like everyone.
His lady said you wont amount to much, his gun into her mouth well lets have
some fun.
Her eyes stare wide knees to the ground her head shot back right outta town,
Then he disappeared, he’s never found.
This morning he will not forget his death, meeting with the gallows noose to break his neck.
Thoughts like these he always has a smile, likes to escape life for awhile.
His smile drops as he falls through the door, he claws away grabs his neck
gasping for one more.
He fades away, death is here he tumbles down to the devils peer,
his face seems to grin, escapes again.
In every town he’s at he kills three men, one for his mother two for his kin.
His daddy’s voice he’ll never hear again, boy you’re a monster I know where
you’ve been.
He shot ya dead and scraped off all your skin, hoping for a chance to live
again.
Let your father bury you in death, well I’ll put you in a pit and sing this
again.
I’m your pa I’ll bury you in death so one day you will rise and live again.
