[Verse 2] I remember the ribbons tied up in her raven hair She was too pretty to breathe in that Rocky Ford air And her pa saw me starin' and he started my way I didn't care what he had to say No Forest alive or dead tells me where to look
[Verse 3] Now Jesse says she's gettin' tired of runnin' around She's sick of the fightin' says love isn't chosen it's found And I think of my brother and if he'd feel the same Layin' there cold and stiff in his grave With a .44 slug from a Forest boy still in his eye
[Verse 4] Too much has been done and I think that the end's drawin' now Jess says it's more than just you now let go of your pride And I think of my father and the words that he's said Better shoot straight boy or you'll wind up dead Layin' here bleedin' I've found out my daddy was right
[Outro] Now my boy comes from a man who died in his boots There's worse things than life that a boy of his name's got to loseTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
