Lore - Hairtrigger Colt's .44 lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Lord, if I had only known the mis'ry That glory's somethin' not worth k**in' for I wish now I had never touched the handle Of a hair-trigger Colt .44 [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] Oh, Lord, if I had only known the mis'ry That glory's somethin' not worth k**in' for I wish now I had never touched the handle Of a hair-trigger Colt .44 [Bridge] Undertaker write on my tombstone "A k**er finally k**ed" and nothin' more But I wouldn't be here if it hadn't been for Providence And that hair-trigger Colt .44 [Chorus] Lord if I had only known the mis'ry That glory's somethin' not worth k**in' for I wish now I had never touched the handle Of a hair-trigger Colt .44 [Chorus] Lord if I had only known the mis'ry That glory's somethin' not worth k**in' for I wish now I had never touched the handle Of a hair-trigger Colt .44
