Given Up Faith

(album: Weight Of A Trigger - 2019)

Adios
San Anton'
To Cheyenne
Riding for the brand
Wanna buy some land
And build a home
For my sweet LouAnn

Well the months
Turned to years
I sent back word
To my LouAnn dear
I hope it made her ear
When I got back to town
She'd disappeared

So I went
To some dark, cold places
I swore LouAnn I'd never go for again
But their whiskey has took my breath and I'm giving in

I'm a storm
Inside a man
My only love
Sits in my hand
Barks my commands
And the Colt and I
We don't need LouAnn

And I hear footsteps
Outside my door
And my pistol flashed
Body hits the floor
I hear my name
Sweet LouAnn, my mistake
I'd given up faith
