Lucero - Cover Me lyrics

We saw it through until
The end of Chickamauga headed west in '64
And we've been moving since
The war wound down we ain't running anymore

Had it coming a long time
Had it coming a long time

We're pinned down with our backs to the wall
This ammo belt is all I got
If you can get me to the horses out there
Maybe then we got a shot
Had it coming a long time
Had it coming a long time

Cover me we're getting out
On the count of three cover me
Cover me cover me

There was a time when they
Couldn't get close enough


To catch us in the open like this
There comes a time for everyone's son
But for us this isn't it

Had it coming a long time
Had it coming a long time

Cover me we're getting out
On the count of three cover me
Cover me cover me

The daylight is fading it's time we move on
I plan on escaping
And I'm not going back alone
Ain't going back alone
Ain't going back alone
Ain't going back alone

Had it coming a long time
Had it coming a long time

Cover me we're getting out
On the count of three cover me

Cover me we're getting out
On the count of three cover me
Cover me cover me
