"I ain't got much regrets except for that I'll probably die poor." -Rylan Brooks, Gunslinger
lyrics
Gunslinger
By, Nate Rylan & Chris Brooks
ASCAP 2018
Lit out, moving fast, keep a foot ahead of my checkered past
Pack them bags and up well there you go
One more push to get me gone, old, beat-up cars parked on the lawn
I’m gonna pray on one to carry me back home
But I’ve got a trigger and a mean right hand
Shoot first, aim later is my only plan
And I’m more trouble than you should ever understand
Find me out on the road if you’re looking for a gunslinger man
Could you hold my scalp while I cool my brain
Or just finish the job ‘cause it’s all the same to me
One more headache in a life gone wrong
Low Down Drunk but I ain’t dead yet
I ain’t got much regrets
Except for that I’ll probably die poor
‘Cause I’ve got a trigger and a mean right hand
Shoot first, aim later is my only plan
And I’m more trouble than you should ever understand
Find me out on the road if you’re looking for a gunslinger man
I light that fire for the hell of it all, I feel the weight of sin descend on me
A million miles till the end of the haul, y’all couldn’t find, no better company
Than a man like me, a gunslinger man
‘Cause I’ve got a trigger and a mean right hand
Shoot first, aim later is my only plan
And I’m more trouble than you should ever understand
Find me out on the road if you’re looking for a gunslinger man
