Before the Bullets Fly Lyrics by Coco Montoya

Hard Truth

0

I hate to leave you babe
But I just can't waste my time
You've got this jealous husband
And I'm to too young to die
Gonna move on away from here
Just before the bullets fly

I've always been a gambler
Takin' chances all my life
Bustin' up these love affairs
Just like shootin' dice
I staged the game girl
That's what keeps me satisfied
And I can leave in the nick of time
Just before the bullets fly

I lost my first bet
When I was twenty-one
Found myself in New Orleans
On the wrong end of a gun
The stakes keep getting higher
But somehow I survived
By knowin' when to leave the game
Just before the bullets fly
You know I have to leave
Just before the bullets fly
I'm gonna get on out of here
Just before the bullets fly
