lyrics

Baby this bullet was made for you
The last one I have to shoot
And my barrel ain’t broken
But I won’t give you up to no lawman

The wells were dry for a hundred miles
And it was their lives or we’d face heavens trials
And the wheels of the wagon no longer had spokes
As we shot and gained speed on those un-thirsty folk
And will you come to my hanging
To hear my final words
We all return to where we once were

Baby this bullet was made for you
Wherever I try and shoot
And we’ll never have fun
If we don’t get gone

They hunted us down through the dawn to the ocean
With our backs to the waves I said I’ll take you to no end
And she looked away and that’s when I drew aim
And they took me in but I gave them no name
They said why did you do it son
Pull a gun on your own girl
Cause nothing else mattered anymore in this whole world

And come be my angel
As I fall from the gallows and I find hell
Baby this bullet was made for you
This is what I was always meant to do
