Chris Ledoux - Hairtrigger colt's .44 lyrics

I'm a man who's goin' to Hell with Heaven's blessin' The judge said I'm not fit to live with men They're buildin' me a gallows in the courtyard To make sure I don't pa** this way again My first taste of k**in' was at Vicksburg I must have shot me a hundred men I learned to make my livin' with a six-gun I'm an outlaw now but I was a hero then Lord if I had only known the misery That glory's somethin' not worth k**in' for I wish now I had never touched the handle Of a hair-trigger Colt .44 I was a hunted desperado A wanted man with a price on my head I thought that I could steal a taste of freedom I got me a hangman's noose instead Lord if I had only known the misery That glory's somethin' not worth k**in' for I wish now I had never touched the handle Of a hair-trigger Colt .44 Undertaker write on my tombstone A k**er finally k**ed and nothin' more I wouldn't be here if it hadn't been for Providence And that hair-trigger Colt .44 Lord if I had only known the misery That glory's somethin' not worth k**in' for I wish now I had never touched the handle Of a hair-trigger Colt .44 Lord if I had only known the misery That glory's somethin' not worth k**in' for I wish now I had never touched the handle Of a hair-trigger Colt .44
