Before the Bullets Fly
You know I hate to leave you, babe
But I just can't waste my time
You've got this jealous husband
And I'm too young to die
Move on away from 'round here
Before the bullets fly
Always been a gambler
Takin' chances all my life
Always smashin' love affairs
Just like shootin' dice
I staged the game girl
That's what keeps me satisfied
And I we leave it in the nick of time
Just before the bullets fly
Take it away, boys
Mr. Franklin
I lost my first bet
When I was twenty-one
Found myself in New Orleans
On the wrong end of a gun
The stakes keep getting higher
But somehow I survive
'Cause I know when the need becomes
Before the bullets fly
Yeah, I know when the need becomes
Before the bullets fly
Yeah, I know when the need becomes
Before the bullets fly
Take it home, boys
But I just can't waste my time
You've got this jealous husband
And I'm too young to die
Move on away from 'round here
Before the bullets fly
Always been a gambler
Takin' chances all my life
Always smashin' love affairs
Just like shootin' dice
I staged the game girl
That's what keeps me satisfied
And I we leave it in the nick of time
Just before the bullets fly
Take it away, boys
Mr. Franklin
I lost my first bet
When I was twenty-one
Found myself in New Orleans
On the wrong end of a gun
The stakes keep getting higher
But somehow I survive
'Cause I know when the need becomes
Before the bullets fly
Yeah, I know when the need becomes
Before the bullets fly
Yeah, I know when the need becomes
Before the bullets fly
Take it home, boys
