Bounty (feat. Lindi Ortega)

I'd say, I'm a lover, not a fighter

I never stare nobody down

Till one night my girl I could not find her

She never made it back from town

I found my Shannon crying in the woods

A wicked man, he held her down

So I stuck him deep and I buried him good

Not deep enough to fool the hounds

We took shelter in a chapel

'Neath the blood moon sky

I bought a gun and made Shannon my wife

We jumped in a boxcar to old Mexico

Where I ain't worth a penny

Of my bounty back home

No, I ain't worth a penny

Of my bounty back home

That train stopped in Tijuana

We built a shack beneath the sun

I make my Shannon margaritas

We watch our children laugh

And run, run, run

Sometimes I miss my daddy

Sometimes I miss my mom

But I think they'd be real proud of me

To know the man that I've become

We took shelter in a chapel

'Neath the blood moon sky

I bought a gun and made Shannon my wife

We jumped in a boxcar to old Mexico

Where I ain't worth a penny

Of my bounty back home

No, I ain't worth a penny

Of my bounty back home, ha!

Train, train roll on

Train, train roll on

Train, train roll on, roll on

Shannon, why'd you run with me?

She said

"What was I supposed to do boy?

Just watch you leave?

You'd have broken my heart

You'd have haunted my dreams

Your love, boy, is all I need

Your love, boy, is all I'll ever need"

We took shelter in a chapel

'Neath the blood moon sky

I bought a gun and made Shannon my wife

We jumped in a boxcar to old Mexico

Where we ain't worth a penny

Of our bounty back home

No, we ain't worth a penny

Of our bounty back home, ha!
