"Caretaker" lyrics

"Caretaker"

Time wears thin when you live in sin
He'll hunt you down on the long haul
Live a crooked life then you'll pay the price
At the end of his old colt lord
Pull the hammer back and the gun goes crack
On the cold floor you'll fall
The old tale said you'd wind up dead
For praying on his downfall

Don't ask why
Hide the fear in your eyes
Don't you cry
He's gonna take your soul

Was a time that he did not ride, he had himself a good life
Until a man took his wife, ended her with a knife
Now he sold his soul to the bad man
Put a Barrell to his head, only saw blood red
The list goes on and on y'all

Don't ask why
Hide the fear in your eyes
Going once, going twice
The bids done sold

He rolled in like the whistling wind, the clan all stood tall
There was twenty men dead when the clock struck ten
For all the dirt they did, Lord
You'll think twice when you take a life
Now you know how it goes y'all

Don't ask why
Hide the fear in your eyes
Don't you cry
He's gonna take your soul
Don't ask why
Hide the fear in your eyes
Going once, going twice
The bids done sold

Don't ask why
Hide the fear in your eyes
Going once, going twice
The bids done sold
Don't ask why
Hide the fear in your eyes
Don't you cry
He's gonna take your, gonna take your soul
