T Bone Burnett - Fear Country lyrics

The cat's out of the bag and it ain't going back Your plan has hit a snag it has fallen through the crack I got a tell on you I got a tell on you This is fear country This is fear country This is a fear country Five years of mercy and two days of grace It only took a minute to fall on your face I got a tell on you I got a tell on you This is fear country This is fear country This is a fear country Cowboy with no cattle warrior with no war They don't make imposters like John Wayne anymore This is fear country This is fear country This is fear country Nobody knows what's going to happen Nobody knows what's going on Nobody knows what's coming down But it's coming down And it happens in a moment It happens in a moment Do this for me Or risk eternal agony This is fear country This is fear country And if you don't believe me I can prove it This is fear country This is fear country If you don't believe me I can prove it This is fear country
