Cole vs the Colt

COLE WAS A COWARD WITH A HEAVY HAND

LEE WAS HIS WOMAN HAD ALL SHE COULD STAND

HE'D GET TO DRINKIN' AND

THEY'D HAVE THEIR WORDS

SCREAMIN' AND CRYIN' WAS ALL YOU HEARD

AND WHEN HE KNOCKED HER DOWN

WHEN SHE FELL ON TO THE GROUND

SHE SAID YOU BETTER PUT A BULLET IN ME

AND FINISH THE JOB NOW

OR TO YOU I MAKE THIS VOW

I'M GONNA MAKE YOU WISH YOU HAD

HE KICKED OFF HIS BOOTS AND HE FELL INTO BED

SHE WAS BLACK AND BLUE

BUT ALL SHE SAW WAS RED

SWORE HE WOULDN'T KNOCK HER AROUND NO MORE

THAT'S WHEN SHE REACHED FOR THE COLT

IN THE DRESSER DRAWER

FAST ASLEEP AND UNAWARE

LEE ROLLED THE BARREL THROUGH HIS GREASY HAIR

WITH ONE EYE OPEN AND A HEARTBEAT SKIP

HE YELLED STOP BUT THE COLT YELLED...
