Description
This here is a longer version of this: http://www.macjams.com/song/54888 - which was recorded in GB with a MacBook built-in mic and an air conditioner roaring in the background. It was meant to be a partial demo version - something I recorded so I could remember how it went when I got home from vacation and recorded it properly. However, some of you folks reckoned it sounded good as is all lo-fi like, and I tend to agree. So, I recorded a full version the same way. I may or may not record it in my 'home studio' at a later date. I think it might take some of it's charm and maybe authenticity away if I do...

Lyrics
got my six gun on my side
gone to kill a coward by the lake
waited for this thunderstorm
to block out that one shot I'm gonna take
beat my sister to the death
that's the last mistake he's gonna make
hand as steady as a rock
itchin for the trigger s'gonna pull
eyes as sharp as mountain hawk's
looking for his dinner down below
cool as calm before the storm
even though the storm is coming soon
It might not be right
to take a life
so daddy please forgive me
I know not what I do
the time has come for me to kill
to shoot that bastard right between the eyes
waiting for that rumbling sound
the thunderclap that's big enough to hide
the one shot that I need to take
the one shot that can guarantee he dies
passed out on the water's edge
empty bottle broken in the sand
six gun laying at his feet
I yell at him to pick it up and stand
and he doesn't make a single sound
doesn't do a thing that I demand
walk around to check him out
shine my lantern down where he's at rest
blood is streamin from his mouth
eyes that starin up at me are dead
guess he beat me to the the punch
the coward shot himself right in the head
It might not be right
to take a life
so Father please forgive him
He knows not what he's done
gone to kill a coward by the lake
waited for this thunderstorm
to block out that one shot I'm gonna take
beat my sister to the death
that's the last mistake he's gonna make
hand as steady as a rock
itchin for the trigger s'gonna pull
eyes as sharp as mountain hawk's
looking for his dinner down below
cool as calm before the storm
even though the storm is coming soon
It might not be right
to take a life
so daddy please forgive me
I know not what I do
the time has come for me to kill
to shoot that bastard right between the eyes
waiting for that rumbling sound
the thunderclap that's big enough to hide
the one shot that I need to take
the one shot that can guarantee he dies
passed out on the water's edge
empty bottle broken in the sand
six gun laying at his feet
I yell at him to pick it up and stand
and he doesn't make a single sound
doesn't do a thing that I demand
walk around to check him out
shine my lantern down where he's at rest
blood is streamin from his mouth
eyes that starin up at me are dead
guess he beat me to the the punch
the coward shot himself right in the head
It might not be right
to take a life
so Father please forgive him
He knows not what he's done
