Lyrics

Raised down in Bastrop
Daddy was a crooked cop
Caught Mama cheating
Pulled the trigger; that’s a full stop
Boys at the station
said they’d sweep it ‘neath the rug
All but one rookie
So he wound up eatin’ slugs
Then, the Texas Rangers
The legal gangbangers
Took me from my daddy
‘cause they said he was a danger
They sent me to Presidio
To train me on the Rio
Días calurosos con
un corazón muy frío.
Spent my days laying
in the hot red sand
With a rage in my heart
And a gun in my hand
Shootin’ at coyotes
chewin’ on peyote
And praying to a God
That don’t even want to know me
By the time I came home
You could tell I was a man
By the notches on my belt
And the blood on my hands
I looked like Jesus
Save the cross and the nails
So they gave me my own deputy
A badge and a jail
You can call me a killer
Or the prodigal son
I got your name on a bullet
In the chamber of my gun
I was losing my control
I was out on patrol
When a jaywalkin’ beauty
Came and stole my soul
I was out for blood
But she was radiating love
Speaking all the words
That I was thinkin’ of
My fate derailed
When I started chasin’ tail
Now no devil in the world
Could afford my bail
She wants me to calm down
Says I’m a strong man
But true strength comes
From a willingness to settle down
You can’t paint a tiger
To hide his stripes
He might purr by day
But he’ll kill at night
A ring on her finger
Is a collar round my throat
I hope this love lingers
‘Cause that’s all she wrote
