Lyrics
Got bloodshot eyes Got buckled knees My mouth is dry My mind's at ease She was a good-time woman In a one-horse town It was a loaded pistol That ran me outta town Runnin' for my life Mercy, If you please "til the mornin' light Set my mind at ease Got loaded dice Shakin' in my hand Standin' at the table Of the promised land Could throw a seven Could roll a four could be in heaven Or be out the door Runnin' for my life Mercy, if you please 'til the mornin' light Set my mind at ease Well, I saw ya last night And the night before Come back tomorrow Knockin' on my door Whiskey makes me crazy 'til the living end Next timeI see ya Gonna do it again Runnin' for my life Mercy, if you please 'til the mornin' light Set my mind at ease Repeat Chorus
