lyrics

Raining hard in the Bayou
Heavy footsteps in the mud
As streams of hope were flowing
Into those rivers of blood....
They say he’s a bad seed
Now he’s the anointed one
No room for the friends of Jesus
When there’s bad things to be done
Thunder in the distance
A silent menace in the air
Just the click of one man’s pistol
And a life hanging by a prayer
2)
Born without conscience
Some say without a soul
When his life was at the crossroads
The Devil took him whole ( Creole)
Now there’s no more gospel singing
For theres trouble in this town
So they paid for this gun for hire
An he’s gonna take em down...
Hey Stranger you better Lookout.. they’re coming for ya............And then he turned and said
I’ll tip my hat and respect your constitution
Swear allegiance to every flag you ever wave
But when it’s time for my own Retribution
‘He bowed to no one’ will be written on my grave..
Only the brave...
3)
Like a Ghost into the darkness
Eyes appear from everywhere
The backdrop of this swampland
Was a true Cajun affair
The first shots fired in anger
The second one’s out of hate
But they were no match for his quick fire draw
He’d already sealed their fate
If you invite the devil to your doorstep..you know there’s gonna be hell to pay
May the lord have mercy on all of our souls
Your God can’t help you now..
As his boat pulled into the jetty
The crowds gathered all around
But their hearts all stopped when those dead eyes shut and he fell and hit the ground....
