The Kid - Ben Nichols

[00:15.32]Your mother died night you were born
[00:19.03]Her name you never knew
[00:22.87]Look away look away
[00:26.46]Nothing to lose
[00:31.01]Left East Tennessee at fourteen
[00:34.83]Wandered to the West
[00:38.21]Look away look away
[00:41.73]Born into death
[00:47.06]You fought the sailors in New Orleans
[00:54.71]You worked the flatboats and walked the streets
[01:03.77]Hit Nacogdoches in forty nine
[01:16.52]And there you saw the devil for the very first time
[01:29.1]Kid don't you know me
[01:35.92]We are the last of the true
[01:40.75]Drink up drink up
[01:49.3]Drink up drink up
[01:55.88]Cause tonight your soul's required of you
[01:67.43]Signed on with a stone mad captain
[01:74.23]Rode on Mexico
[01:79.87]Look away Look away
[01:86.07]War behold
[01:93.13]Jailed with killers one and all
[01:98.77]But we were killers free
[02:05.15]Look away look away
[02:11.48]Look to me
[02:20.1]You saw the lancers 'mid heathen hordes
[02:32.8]Bloodstained veils and costumes of war
[02:45.17]Hell ain't half-full boy hear me
[02:58.2]War is the game and the god we seek
[02:70.47]Kid don't you know me
[02:77.45]We are the last of the true
[02:82.05]Drink up drink up
[02:90.15]Drink up drink up
[02:97.45]Cause tonight your soul's required of you
[03:49.2]We set out as men of reason
[03:56.03]Armed with Navy Colts
[03:61.62]Look away look away
[03:67.63]Work paid in gold
[03:74.77]But you stood witness to yourself
[03:81.03]Our trial you did betray
[03:87.28]Look away Look away
[03:93.23]To judgment day
[04:01.87]We killed in the desert we killed in the streets
[04:14.57]We chose what shall and shall not be
[04:27.72]We stood with pistols fought back to back
[04:40.17]Now you've stood you're ground but what ground is that
[04:52.75]Kid don't you know me
[04:59.73]We are the last of the true
[04:64.67]Drink up drink up
[04:71.75]Drink up drink up
[04:79.57]Cause tonight your soul's required of you
[04:92.33]Kid don't you know me
[04:99.08]We are the last of the true
[05:03.82]Drink up drink up
[05:11.92]Drink up drink up
[05:18.7]Cause tonight your soul's required of you
