Magnum Maid

(album: Assault & Battery - 1981)

Corruption breeds destruction
And the cats are killing my homeland
After years of trying to do the right thing
Now it's too far out of hand

We're never gonna catch the criminals
As long as they're running the show
We can't have our own opinions
About things they won't let us know

She's a well built lady, steel cold
Spits hellzone fire, with a tombstone lead

Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Can you save a boy like me
Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Set my country free

They commit atrocities against their own
[?]
Where dignity has been stripped away
Revenge will be found

I conceived a plan out of desperation
To set the country free
The war I fought was no solution
There was nothing left for me

But a well built lady, steel cold
Spits hellzone fire, with a tombstone lead

Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Can you save a boy like me
Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Set my country free

Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Can you save a boy like me
Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Set my country free
Set it free

Now I'm laying here in the gutter
And my blood's staining the sand
There's two rounds left in my .44
Lying inches away from my hand

There's a man who's walking my way
Thinks I'm dead for sure
When I cock the handle of my Magnum Maid
He won't hurt no one no more

A well built lady, steel cold
Spits hellzone fire, with a tombstone lead

Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Can you save a boy like me
Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Set my country free

I feel the steel it's cool in my hand
There's a man he's about to die
Hey lady luck, give me the pluck
To get free, have a one more try

Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Can you save a boy like me
Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Gonna set my country free

Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid, Magnum Maid
