This Way To The Egress - Lyle's Tale lyrics

That moonshine liquors gone against the law, forever long their bustin down these walls. In his wife's eyes it's a lonely rain, that bounty on his head went up again. His daddy always said you'll be on the run, go on down to Molly's fetch yourself a gun. He cleaned it up rolled around stole a horse right outta town, Then he disappeared he's never found. He won't anticipate this mornings d**h, opened up the window, drew in his last cold breath. It's time like these he always seems to smile, forget the hard times and be gone awhile. His smile drops as they crash through his door, ducks away grabs his gun fires from the floor. They nick his face he makes the shot, they tumble down he's out the lot leaves them with a grin, He wins again. In every town he's at he k**s three men, one for his mother two for his kin. His daddy's voice it's always screaming in, son you're a monster show them where you've been He'll shoot ya dead and scrape off all your skin, with hopes to get a chance to live again. This milly man he ain't not worth your spit, he'll go and shoot your momma throw her in the pits. Youre staring through the eye of his gun, gonna end up dead just like everyone. His lady said you wont amount to much, his gun into her mouth well lets have some fun. Her eyes stare wide knees to the ground her head shot back right outta town, Then he disappeared, he's never found. This morning he will not forget his d**h, meeting with the gallows noose to break his neck. Thoughts like these he always has a smile, likes to escape life for awhile. His smile drops as he falls through the door, he claws away grabs his neck gasping for one more. He fades away, d**h is here he tumbles down to the devils peer, His face seems to grin, escapes again. In every town he's at he k**s three men, one for his mother two for his kin. His daddy's voice he'll never hear again, boy you're a monster I know where you've been. He shot ya dead and scraped off all your skin, hoping for a chance to live again. Let your father bury you in d**h, well I'll put you in a pit and sing this again. I'm your pa I'll bury you in d**h so one day you will rise and live again.
