Ooooh, I aint nothing but a sinner one day Ill pay for my crimes, to the Saint Of All Killers buck knife in my pocket, South Texas is my home no cowboys and indians, just their blood and bones ooooh, murder is a thriller one day ill pay for my crimes, to the Saint Of All Killers love has been my victim, deep down in the south but when he cocks his pistol, stop running your big mouth ooooh, aint no better way or quicker to pay for my crimes, to the Saint Of A ll Killers got my black leather jacket, black boots to match blood stains on my t-shirt, and then I see a flash ooooh, give me one more drink of liquor before I pay for my crimes, to the Saint Of All Killers black chaps and a duster, big 10 gallon hat 2 6 shooters on each hip, quicker than a cat ooooh, devil man pull the trigger one day Ill pay for my crimes, to the Saint Of All Killers Ooooh, I aint nothing but a sinner one day Ill pay for my crimes, to the Saint Of All Killers

come on pretty baby take a walk with me down where the kudzu grow were gonna build a fire, as to what will transpire aint nobody every got to know were gonna sing some songs to the darkness were gonna take off all of our clothes were gonna spread some powder, get my dogs to bark louder and I’m hoping that the devil shows come on pretty baby grab your clip point knife and sway like a willow tree you can run and hide, but not from whats inside and you can be who you wanna be let the warmth of fire embrace you let the demons inside you come out and when the morning comes, we’ll hear the native drums and you will know what its all about come on pretty baby let the powers rise through your naked skin it wont be long, and it feels so wrong but its the only way you’re gonna win hear the cackling laughter of firewood hear the moan of thunder and wind see the demon eyes, in the moon so bright dont forget to let the evil in

Sarah, won’t you turn and look my way well i know you don’t want me, but my love wont lead you astray Sarah, hit me with those granny smiths cause my heartbeat does vanish, every time you serve that dish Sarah, let the snow come falling down i can’t stop from staring, when i see you walk around Sarah, I got loving in my heart let me hear some sweet sugar, that can tear my world apart fix Sarah, I may be young but not a fool i’d slave for you baby, like a big ol’ brown haired mule Sarah, come and ride the bus with me wont be mad if you decline, and there aint no apology

Whisky Winds 03:37
well Im leaving in the morning, I packed my close chasing that southern sun down well my father just shook my hand and, said to me “son, go on and make me proud” only thing that worries me is whether I know how well now two thousand miles are up ahead like a river wild and I’ll sleep baby, when I’m dead ol’ Pete can reconcile whiskey winds keep blowing with each and every mile well i passed through Virginia and Tennessee but left them in my dust every town here looks just the same filled with shacks and rust blues billowing around me like some bonfire musk well I strum my guitar and i blow my harp sing to the pale moon light and I’m not in a bad place and i feel free make way for southern night hard time might be ahead but that road will make it right

i aint got no friends who needs em all they do is let you down i aint got no one to love who needs it all it does is break your heart i aint got no food to eat who needs it all it does is make you fat i aint got no beer to drink who needs it all it does is make you sad i aint got no books to read who needs em all they do is make you dumb i aint got no car to drive who needs it all it does is keep you poor i aint got no money in the bank who needs it all it does is make you weak i aint got no fear in god who needs him all he does is turn his back

Now gather round and listen to my lonesome tale i was born to be a loser and destined to fail i live with disappointment its a way of life and Ill never get out of this dead end strife i wish i were a winner but i just cant change my ways im my own worst enemy i don’t know why i cant change my ways no matter how hard i try smoking and drinking never did me no good and I’m sick of living down in this dirty old hood there aint nobody gonna lend a helping hand just leave me in the gutter where i belong i got to keep moving even if it feels wrong ill never know why i cant get ahead and the only releif will be when I’m dead ill make this easy and you don’t have to say goodbye
