Intro: I'd say I'm a lover not a fighter, I'd never stare nobody down Til one night my girl I could not find her, she never made it back from town I found my Shannon cryin in the woods, a wicked man he held her down I stuck him deep an I buried him good, not deep enough to fool the hounds We took shelter in a chapel neath the blood moon sky, I bought a gun an made Shannon my wife We jumped in a box car to old mexico Where I aint worth a penny on my bounty back home No I ain't worth a penny on my bounty back home Verse: That train stopped in Tijuana, we built a shack beneath the sun I make my Shannon margaritas, we watch our childre laugh and runrunrun Sometimes I miss my daddy, sometimes I miss my mom I think they'd be real proud of me, to know the man that Iv become Chorus:
