| It was a winter’s night, cold had a hell of a bite when the collector came to
|
| town
|
| An unfortunate soul for six feet below sent to send the sinners down
|
| So he’s not all bad but hell he ain’t no good, when you see him it’s too late
|
| to pray
|
| Kid he don’t show his face unless it’s time to pay and well I guess today’s
|
| your day
|
| «Put it all on black» he said with the devil in his eye
|
| A pinstripe suit, and a .45, and a blood red bottle of wine
|
| Long before you he’s shot down a few but none he knew by name
|
| Just a bottle of vino, in an old casino, and a mask to hide his pain
|
| You’ll never see him coming, no one ever sees him leave
|
| My friend your time has come, you’d best believe, he’ll shoot you down
|
| He’ll shoot you down
|
| He said «You know who you are and you know why I’ve come, you’ve done wrong one
|
| too many times
|
| I knew it was you by the devil in your eye 'cause they’re burning just like mine
|
| I’ll give you one chance to walk out the door, let this dealer here decide
|
| So put your soul down on this next round 'cause I’m collecting souls tonight»
|
| He came to shoot you down
|
| He came to shoot you down
|
| He came to shoot you down
|
| He came to shoot you down
|
| And he laid it down. |
| He put his soul on the line
|
| Yeah he laid it down one last time
|
| To keep on living the way he’s been living
|
| To keep on sinning the way he’s been sinning
|
| When that ball fell red a shot rang out and it deadened every sound
|
| All he left was a smoking gun on the table and a body on the ground
|
| So if you know you’re trouble, know there’s eyes on you and you’re running out
|
| of time
|
| When you’re sitting at the table against a pinstripe suit and a blood red
|
| bottle of wine
|
| You’ll never see him coming, no one ever sees him leave
|
| My friend don’t try to run, you’d best believe, he’ll shoot you down
|
| He’ll shoot you down
|
| He’ll shoot you down
|
| He’ll shoot you down
|
| He’ll shoot you down
|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 feet in the ground
|
| He’ll shoot you down
|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 shots in a round
|
| He’ll shoot you down
|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 shots and you’re down
|
| He’ll shoot you down
|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 feet in the ground
|
| He’ll shoot you down
|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 feet in the ground
|
| He’ll shoot you down
|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 shots in a round
|
| He’ll shoot you down |
