Mandolin Orange - Rounder lyrics

I'm just a lonesome old rounder Never meant to hurt no one But some flames are hard to simmer I wore on my pride on my bad side And on the other get my hand close by the trigger Some folks are guided by the weight of their tongues But we all fall silent at the end of a gun And now I'm just a lonesome old rounder With a number for my name and a rope to haunt my dreams They're going to hang me boys from a tall, tall tree Those demons there be the d**h of me Some folks are guided by some light of the Lord But me, I was blinded, and I'll never afford My salvation I'm just a lonesome old rounder Darkness grows and then it's gone And at the end of this lonely road Those deeds you've done, say you'll never grow old Some folks are guided by the love they share But darkness called and left me unaware And now I'm just a lonesome old rounder But the few last words and one last meal They're going to hang me boys come the morning light When darkness smiles and all is still All is still
