As long as the heart of the kid is beating
Out on the lone star trail I'm going, so
Miss me love, or kiss me love, I'm
Leaving
While the rest of this dead town
Is sleeping
His mother stood and watched her boy go, from her door
Never to return home, no more
She said stay here boy, get a job
Earn your money
Don't you go out there in that cold and pouring rain
Because out there in the dark
Angels fear to tread
The knife, or the bullet
Will leave you dead
Where the spirits flow
And shadows fall
And the words of doom
Are written on the wall
Stay home, get a job, make some money
Don't you go out there in that
Cold falling rain
He said momma, I'll keep my knife sharp
And my bullets clean
Don't you know the rain
It don't ever fall on me
I'm gonna rob the rich
I'm gonna give to the poor
If I'm not doing that,
What am I living for
Watching the moon rise
Over the River
You know, that don't cost me nothin'
Please don't go
Don't go
