Collin Raye - Harder Cards lyrics
(craig wiseman/michael henderson) Well the hammer fell down on a forty-four primer Now there's one less problem in south carolina tonight Wrong or right She just looked at me as she finished her tale And her blank expression went another shade pale of grey There was nothin' to say In the shadows of her face, i saw the scars That you get when you live where love is hard And she said Don't you sit and judge me From some high and mighty seat Don't you shrug off Until you've walked a mile in my bare feet 'cause there are people that you pass by every day With harder cards than yours in life to play Well i put the cuffs on her And i put her in the car And i walked in and he was on the floor Stone dead Shot in the head There were whiskey bottles and dope by his chair And a starving baby with nothin' to wear But tears You know, the picture was clear He had finally pushed her farther than the line And the badge i wore had lost all of it's shine Don't you sit and judge me From some high and mighty seat Don't you shrug off Until you've walked a mile in my bare feet 'cause there are people that you pass by every day With harder cards than yours in life to play Well i stood there thinkin' how justice was blind But i didn't see any and i could see just fine And i made up my mind So i took the cuffs off her And i took her back in I wiped off the gun And wrapped it in his right hand Where it should've been And the morning paper told in black and white Just another senseless case of suicide Oh, just a suicide Oh but don't you sit and judge me From some high and mighty seat Don't you shrug off Until you've walked a mile on my beat 'cause there are people that you pass by every day With harder cards than yours in life to play Yeah the hammer fell down on a forty-four primer Now there's one less problem in south carolina tonight |
