Heard It Said

There's a man outside town
I've heard it said
Until today he just made bread
Kept his family fed
I think his name is Fred
He just found out that his family is dead
Now he's packing mules and seeing red he's a killer I heard it said
Ones packed full of water and homemade bread the other is full of lead
Where's he going I'd like to be knowing
To get revenge is how I've heard it said
The killers unknown and acted alone
So who exactly is the one who ends up dead
He's all saddled up and heading east then heading here
Least I heard it said
The wife he wed and his children are dead
I doubt one could keep a level head
I've heard it said and it looks to me from what I can see
Him and his mules coming for you and me
But that can't be
There was no one to see
My friend you said
You said that we got off scot free
This sure ain't fun
There's nowhere to run
He's got a gun and a cigarette lit
Does he know there's two of us here
He might and might not give a shit
Should we kill him now I wouldn't know how my friend I'm shaking I'm done
Fred I think is at our door
I can't take no more
Let's head out the back and run
Well bloody hell my buddy fell
But I think it's swell that I got away Fred
I think who makes bread and his awful revenge
Will just have to wait for another day
My names not Fred but my family's dead and you did it is how I've heard it said
Have a rough ride straight to hell like your friend that fell
And ended up dead
Tonight will be alright for coyotes
No need to scrap to be well fed
Instead they dine on the man Maybe Fred filled with lead
I heard it said
I said tonight will be alright for coyotes no need to scrap to be well fed
Instead they dine on the man maybe Fred filled with lead is how I've heard it said
