| [00:00.65] |
Looking back now, I probably should've let him run |
| [00:21.12] |
He smelled like gin with a hint of her |
| [00:24.32] |
Up 'til then I wasn't sure |
| [00:27.13] |
But he swaggered by and said "The boys said to tell you hey" |
| [00:33.06] |
And I was kicked back in his easy chair |
| [00:36.36] |
Holding a fifth tapping the barrel |
| [00:39.14] |
Of a fresh cleaned steel blue polished up .38 |
| [00:45.17] |
And I was kind of hoping he'd at least look scared |
| [00:50.49] |
But all he said was "Okay, she was good and you don't dare" |
| [00:57.16] |
Looking back now I probably should've let him run |
| [01:03.37] |
Paybacks are hell where I come from |
| [01:08.46] |
And any fool should know |
| [01:10.34] |
You don't look a woman in the eye and smile |
| [01:13.61] |
When she knows what you've done |
| [01:17.04] |
And she's holding whiskey and a gun |
| [01:33.30] |
Well the sun shines gray in the prison yard |
| [01:36.29] |
Life to go was going hard |
| [01:39.08] |
When the warden started getting sweet on me |
| [01:45.16] |
And he drug me up to his room one night |
| [01:48.44] |
And poured me some 'skey gave me a light |
| [01:50.97] |
And I smoked slow and waited 'til he was done |
| [01:57.11] |
And I thought that was that 'til he got rough and I fought back |
| [02:02.52] |
And when I grabbed his pistol he laughed and said |
| [02:06.22] |
"Girl you ain't got the guts" |
| [02:09.56] |
Looking back now I probably should've let him run |
| [02:15.64] |
Paybacks are hell where I come from |
| [02:20.52] |
And any fool should know |
| [02:22.36] |
You don't look a woman in the eye and smile |
| [02:25.79] |
When she knows what you've done |
| [02:29.08] |
And she's holding whiskey and a gun |
| [02:38.18] |
Whiskey and a gun |
| [02:46.54] |
They're strapping me down and I'm scared to die |
| [02:49.78] |
Now I ain't the kind of girl to cry |
| [02:52.41] |
But I find myself begging God for mercy |
| [02:58.64] |
My hands are cold as I start to slip |
| [03:01.84] |
Sodium theopentol drips |
| [03:04.64] |
The room goes black and I wonder if He heard me |
| [03:10.60] |
Looking back now I probably should've let 'em run |
| [03:16.17] |
I bet paybacks are hell there where I'm goin' |
| [03:22.03] |
But any fool should know |
| [03:23.84] |
You don't look a woman in the eye and smile |
| [03:27.10] |
When she knows what you've done |
| [03:30.68] |
And she's holdin' whiskey and a gun |
| [03:39.62] |
Whiskey and a gun |
| [03:44.82] |
Whiskey and a gun |
| [03:51.49] |
Whiskey and a gun |
