Flintlock Rifle

Grew up quiet and I grew up patient
Sitting pretty like a picture in a church pew waiting
Minding mine own on one fine day when you rolled into town
Don't say your prayers, Jesus can't save us now

Heard whispers sweep the whole congregation
Storms coming in, the wind is changing
Love like this is a deadly game
Men like you make good girls go insane

Now I'm Bangin' my fist on Satan's table
I'd sell my soul for you, my angel
I'll love you as long as I'm able
Til death do us part

If you get the nerve to leave me
I promise it won't be easy
The devil himself will have to tear us apart

Oh I won't let go
Oh I know
How to load your flintlock rifle

If you get the nerve to be unfaithful
I'll march back down to Satan's table
The last time we ever roll around
Will be 6 feet in the dirt
Darlin' you can mark my words

When you hung that gun up on the mantle
Bet you didn't think I would light you up like St Mary's candle
If you ever break my heart

I'll be Bangin' my fist on Satan's table
I'd sell my soul for you, my angel
I'll love you as long as I'm able
Til death do us part
If you get the nerve to leave me
I promise it won't be easy
The devil himself will have to tear us apart

Oh I won't let go
Oh I know
How to load your flintlock rifle
