Before the Bullets Fly

Girl I hate to leave you
Gotta take my time
You got a jealous husband
And I'm too young to die
I think I'll get out of here
Before the bullets fly

Always been a gambler, takin' chances all my life
All these back door love affairs, it's just like shootin' dice
I stay in danger, that's what keeps me satisfied
I think I'll get out of here before the bullets fly

Lost my first bet when I was just twenty-one
Found myself in New Orleans on the wrong end of a gun
Stakes keep gettin' higher, but somehow I survive
By knowin' when to leave the game before the bullets fly

You know I hate to leave you
Gotta take my time
You got a jealous husband
And I'm too young to die
I think I'll get out of here
Before the bullets fly
