Pour 'Em Kinda Strong |
Bartender, I know you’re a reasonable man |
Looks like you got the run of this place |
Set me up a round so’s that I can see your hands |
And wipe the goddamned smile off of your face |
I’m sure you must have heard of me, I’m lightning with my Smith |
And my reputation burns all through the west |
So if you know what is good for you, shut up and get the whiskey |
And not that trade stuff, I want nothin' but your best |
And pour 'em kinda strong 'cause I won’t be here long |
You best not do me wrong, just pour 'em kinda strong |
I ain’t got time to savour 'em, I gotta drink 'em quick |
I’ve conveyed my urgency, I hope |
If they catch me it’s all over, I’ll be way on up the creek |
And I’ll be swingin' on the wrong end of a rope |
The posse’s been behind me now for six or seven days |
Only two hours back and chewin' on my dust |
I got a powerful thirst I come in here to try to slake |
So serve it up or draw down if you must |
Well I wasn’t really watchin' you, my eyes was on the door |
Imagine my surprise to hear the cock |
Of that .32 that left me here to bleed out on your floor |
I’m too far gone to bother with the doc |
Well I wasn’t really watchin' you, my eyes was to the east |
You know, to dull the pain I could use one more |
You surely won’t deny a man a dyin' drink at least |
I’m awful embarrassed at how I spoke to you before |
So pour 'em kinda strong 'cause I won’t be here long |
Mister, please don’t do me wrong, just pour 'em kinda strong |
You surely won’t deny a dyin' man a drink at least |
I’m awful embarrassed at how I spoke to you before |
