Collin Raye - Harder Cards songtekst

Je score:

Well the hammer fell down on a forty-four primer

Now there's one less problem in South Carolina tonight

Wrong or right



She just looked at me as she finished her tale

And her blank expression went another shade pale of grey

There was nothin' to say

In the shadows of her face, I saw the scars

That you get when you live where love is hard

And she said



Don't you sit and judge me

From some high and mighty seat

Don't you shrug off

Until you've walked a mile in my bare feet

'Cause there are people that you pass by every day

With harder cards than yours in life to play



Well I put the cuffs on her

And I put her in the car

And I walked in and he was on the floor

Stone dead

Shot in the head



There were whiskey bottles and dope by his chair

And a starving baby with nothin' to wear

But tears

You know, the picture was clear



He had finally pushed her farther than the line

And the badge i wore had lost all of it's shine



Don't you sit and judge me

From some high and mighty seat

Don't you shrug off

Until you've walked a mile in my bare feet

'Cause there are people that you pass by every day

With harder cards than yours in life to play



Well I stood there thinkin' how justice was blind

But I didn't see any and I could see just fine

And I made up my mind



So I took the cuffs off her

And I took her back in

I wiped off the gun

And wrapped it in his right hand

Where it should've been



And the morning paper told in black and white

Just another senseless case of suicide

Oh, just a suicide



Oh but don't you sit and judge me

From some high and mighty seat

Don't you shrug off

Until you've walked a mile on my beat

'Cause there are people that you pass by every day

With harder cards than yours in life to play



Yeah the hammer fell down on a forty-four primer

Now there's one less problem in South Carolina tonight
