Before the Bullets Fly

I hate to leave you babe I just can't waste my time You got this jealous husband I'm too too young to die I gotta move on away from round here Just before the bullets fly Always been a gambler Taking chances all of my life Busting up love affairs Just like shoot dice I staged the game girl That's what keeps me satified And I can leave it in the nick of time Just before the bullets fly I lost my first bet when I was twenty-one Found myself in New Orleans On the wrong end of a gun The stakes keep getting higher But somehow I survive By knowing when the need becomes Just before the bullets fly I'm knowing when the need becomes Just before the bullets fly, yeah I'm knowing when the need becomes Just before the bullets fly
