Cole Ellis - Double Barrel Lyrics

They say when you go up to the mountain, you better watch your step
"Everybody here is either barbaric or beft"
They say "look out for the all siren's singing in the sun"
But I sit down and think "oh what the hell's the worst to come"

I see a girl (He sees a girl)
With long red hair (Long red hair)
She pulls it back, ties it up & then she stares (Then she stares)
Right in my eyes & told me of a sacred time where everything was one a kind
Until the old war came along & said

You hear the shot stray from the double barrel gun & with that sound the world will forever change
You hear the shot stray to your mother's only son, now that poor boy is lying in his grave

West 32nd and 18th is where I wish to be cuz
Death has took its toll on me and you damn well got to see
These ways of live have sipped me dry and run me to the streets
So I turn around, pick up my head, and staring right at me

I see a man (He sees a man)
With nothing to lose (Nothing to lose)
He's got a pistol, cocks it back, & then he shoots (Then he shoots)
And I fall towards the broken floor
Singing songs of folk & lore
Wishing somewhere someone would've said

You hear the shot stray from the double barrel gun & with that sound the world will forever change
You hear the shot stray to the station in the sun, all the way from the turnpike to the train

You hear the shot stray from the double barrel gun & with that sound the world will forever change
You hear the shot stray to your mother's only son, now that poor boy is lying in his
