Shawn James - Six Shells (The Outlaw's Anthem) lyrics

Give me a damn good reason
Why I should stay calm through the storm
As six shells lay at my feet
He had it coming
Yeah he knew that he was wrong
Now he lies on the dirt in defeat

Death on the wind as blood waters the earth
Vultures circle round
Scent of the fallen calls for it's worth
The scavengers swoop down

Death on the wind as blood waters the earth
Vultures circle round
Scent of the fallen calls for it's worth
The scavengers swoop down

I set out from Oklahoma
And I headed down El Paso way
To find a way to cross the border
I knew they'd be coming
It wouldn't be long til they caught my trail
With a dead or alive bounty order

Death on the wind as blood waters the earth
Vultures circle round
Scent of the fallen calls for it's worth
The scavengers swoop down

Death on the wind as blood waters the earth
Vultures circle round
Scent of the fallen calls for it's worth
The scavengers swoop down

I've never been wise, but I've never stolen
And I've never killed a man
In cold blood before
But he took the life of the one
That I loved most of all now I'm an outlaw
A man on the run

Death on the wind as blood waters the earth
Vultures circle round
Scent of the fallen calls for it's worth
The scavengers swoop down

Death on the wind as blood waters the earth
Vultures circle round
Scent of the fallen calls for it's worth
The scavengers swoop down
