"Time To Kill" lyrics

"Time To Kill"

I've got my mind made up. I'm sporting side arm steel
I was just a kid of a boy, when my father and I we had our last meal
He swung a snub nose, now it's all mine
Just a chip off the old block, checking hits off a hollow point at a time

Because they'll be
No time to tell you who sent me
No time to walk and talk and make amends
Shut your eyes and say your goodbyes
Time to kill is all there is

You shoulda headed way up north. You could have made it your own way
You'd have had a hell of a lot better chance than you do today
Because my father raised me up, and you took him from me
You'd better pray that this powders wet when we get out to that gyp sink

Because they'll be
No time to tell you who sent me
No time to walk and talk and make amends
Shut your eyes and say your goodbyes
Time to kill is all there is

It's all that there is
