THE DUEL
We met on a Sunday.. middle of the afternoon You could call it a duel if you wanted to She comes with both guns blazing Oh when she sets her sights on something new I was on my knees praying to god that jesus would have room in his heart for me too She looked like a godess until she opened up her eyes Underneath those pretty eyelashes the fire of Hades was burning inside Father forgive me Heaven knows how I tried Heaven knows you tried to warn me But Hell you know I like a good fight Hey girl show me them teeth if you think that love should be a little bloody Love should be a little bloody Can’t always be sunny She said “hey boy wanna see these teeth, wanna see me howling” I do think we need to wait for the dirt to settle before let that forked tongue out to play before you try to put the fear of god inside me, before were elbow deep into the fray, before we’ve gone our separate ways, before my face is in the chardonnay Show me those teeth
