Crosshairs

The moon's laying low in the sky
And as I walk the tears fall from my eyes
And I can finally admit what I never would say
Should have followed when you walked away
My mother, she warned me of love
Of god and the skies up above
She said this life of sin, it'll only bring pain
So I've always been running away

Now gimme a whiskey and I'll be on my way
To another old town where I can dig my own grave
God couldn't stop me cause I shot him down
When he came down from heaven, touched his feet to the ground
I said finally you'll feel the pain that comes with losing
With drinking and gambling, killing and using
If I have to die, then you'll have to die too
Cause I've got my gun drawn
With the crosshairs on you

I woke up on the bar floor
A man in white stood at the door
So I stood right on up and walked over his way
Should've killed me fore I was awake
He said mother she wants you back home
And paw died a few months ago
She don't blame you for nothing, wants to see you again
Fore you're burning in hell for your sins
And when he turned around
That's when, that's when, that's when, I shot that man down

Now gimme a whiskey and I'll be on my way
To another old town where I can dig my own grave
God couldn't stop me cause I shot him down
When he came down from heaven, touched his feet to the ground
I said finally you'll feel the pain that comes with losing
With drinking and gambling, killing and using
If I have to die, then you'll have to die too
Cause I've got my gun drawn
With the crosshairs on you

Yo-de-lay-ee-ooh

Yo-de-lay-ee-ooh
Yo-de-lay-ee
Yo-de-lay-ee-ooh
Yo-de-lay-ee
Yo-de-lay-ee-ooh
Yo-de-lay-ee
If I have to die, then you'll have to die too
With the crosshairs on you
