Lyrics

"Face to the ground and nobody dies,"
The man at the register lied
Guns on the table and Abigail's scared
"To the vault," the racket-man cried
Cracks in the window
The barley's grown tall
Have the 5 fleeing horsemen changed your mind at all?
Or are you still of that pedigree
That goes to the shore in their time?
Three days running from the law
In the stable of Mon Carnival
Three days fishing on the land
It's the salt on your lips
And the grains in your hand
Warden he marched up to Hornsberry Trail
The governor demanded their lives
Hidin' out, shaking the coins of their kill
In the pastures on the Macon Street Line
Soft summer air, it hung like a stone
Breaking and making a life of their own
But the big man was watching, you were never alone
And by night their cover had dried
Three days running from the law
In the stable of Mon Carnival
Three days fishing on the land
It's the salt on your lips
And the grains in your hand
Hangman tilted his head to see
5 fated horsemen in the gallery
Tighten the loop and crank up the key
As they ran to the shore in their minds
Three days running from the law
In the stable of Mon Carnival
Three days fishing on the land
It's the salt on your lips
And the grains in your hand
