One Minute Millionaires - Bottle lyrics

I found a ring at roadside stand, for half a'days' pay And though I'm dead in my saddle, my horse knows the way back home All that's left of my little homestead, are broken fences and cattle long dead There's no more coffee, and no more flour for bread And I pray So Mary please hold me 'Cause I k**ed [second time - bled] her slowly I begged and I prayed, she pa**ed on the same And pa** me the bottle, before I remember her name Well I had nothing to give her, but cold nights and long days And all she had was my stone-hardened heart, she hid her sorrow and laughed the same So my hand clenches the bottle, as my heart cries like a preacher But I don't need your sermon, 'cause it won't help me reach her The tears in my eyes, sting my sun-burned cheeks The first drops of water that I've seen in weeks I knew she'd be gone, my luck always runs bad in streaks Cold steel in my temple A lost love I can't figure Though my peacemaker's empty Still I pull the trigger
