blues for outlaw duet
you can meet your fate on a one-way street
while the world keeps on turnin’
ride my steel wheels straight to hell
I feel the passion in me burnin’
a life of thunder, a life of crime
I hear the angry spirits callin’
the earth is quakin’, the mountain shakin’
& the shattered sky has fallen
in the drivin’ rain, I stand & call her name
a woman for my pleasure
take her savage breast for a moment’s rest
& a heart that I can treasure
plunder the night in the fire’s light
screams the madness in my head
save the gun for the dawning sun
leave the bullet on the bed
(Art by Pascal Chove)
