Eric Fish - Partners lyrics

Mister did you come in search of water
I'll bet you're thirsty, wrong or right
How'd you like to be my partner
Mister will you ride with me tonight

There's a house upon the hillside
The people there ain't no damn good
They've got gold and they've got silver
I'd like to have it if I could

Feel that wind feel it blow
There's worse than stealin'
When a man is tired and cold
You know my life has been a nightmare
I won't bore you with the news
But I can sum you up by lookin'
I ain't no hungrier than you

Hey friend, sorry that you're dyin'
I didn't know he had a gun
Such a shame to leave you lyin'
But you know I've got to run

You know the law has got a long arm
I've been around I know it well
But if they're ever gonna catch me
They'll have to chase me into hell
