Vetiver
I Know No Pardon
Maria please don't leave me now I need ya
I'ma wanted
there's nowhere I can go
My up's turned down my luck's spun round and left me
no I didn't see it comin but oh I'ma watchin it go
so I chose the company of those who don't need protection
took a new name, mostly to fool my friends
swore off the days Letras de cancioneswhen I had to count on others
cause courtin the knife means countin your days to the end
I made enemies of those who might defend me
Partnered with men liable to do me in
snake in my way, past deals will make you wonder
what kind of heaven are these killers dying to win
did I lose my way or did I just play
the cards the way the dealer gave em to me
I try not to regret
the things that I've done yet I know no pardon pity for the guilty
some games you play well
well you lose
sometimes you're dealt
you don't get to choose
some guns get drawn but you don't need to use them
some tried that before their troubles begin
oh but I oh but I
I've seen the handle
I had the women and the law(lord?) by my side
I climbed so high the sky dropped down to teach me
how to lay low and keep my ear to the ground
I'll get caught one day
least that's what they say
repayins are but a killers way of trying
dont' ask me to confess
my peace will come on rest
confessin's just an honest way of lying
my blues are tangled and are cursed with the fear of knowing
no allibis or ties left to keep me going
