Bandit Lyrics

Bandit

I was running from the law, she was hot on my tail
I took a turn down in Arkansas and into that pit I fell,
Oh into that pit I fell

I found myself in a pack of wolves preying on the weary and the weak
Ravaging homes with abandoned souls
When a bullet blew through my cheek,
Oh a bullet blew through my cheek.

I woke up to a cold dark cell with the taste of blood on my tongue
Them boys inside they was cold as hell
God's vengeance for all I had done, oh gods vengeance

Well I picked up that good book and read those fabled tales
That midnight moon shining through
And I fell on my knees the night before
They hung me up by a noose
Oh they hung me up by a noose

And when I leave here I'm gonna float in the sky
And when I meet my maker I'm gonna laugh till I cry
