Description
"I Came to Win" was written away from home. It's like a gypsy hymn. A campfire tune for those walking ahead of their shadows. For people who don't look back. This song is as close to an autobiography as it gets.
Lyrics
Though broken my heart i know it ain't spent All my bad times, they came and the went And i'ma runnin' hell bent on getting whatever it is I need. I had an apartment and lived on the streets Once in the valley and once by the sea And I feel on my knees But I know there's a place in this world for me Give me something to drink I don't care what it is It could be one-eyed whiskey or Arabian gin And I've had my share of sin But when I come to play I come to win
