Текст песни
And it s less than a mile away, the more those feelings grew
Daddy s rifle in my hand felt reassuring, numbers add up to nothing
and it s less than a mile away
There s a white boat coming up the river, daddy s rifle in my hand felt reassuring Cowboy, raised my rifle to my eye
Daddy s gone, cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger, so the powers that be left me here to do the thinkin
And the closer they got, i was wondering what to do
It s got numbers on the side and a gun, i was wondering what to do
daddy s gone
my brother s out hunting in the mountains
So the powers that be left me here to do the thinkin, and my face splashed in the sky
because it don t look like they re here to deliver the mail
With so much left undone, so the powers that be left me here to do the thinkin
then i saw black
with so much left undone
with so much left undone
shelter me from the powder and the finger
red means run
And the closer they got, shelter me from the powder and the finger
Because it don t look like they re here to deliver the mail, cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger Junkies, numbers add up to nothing
I was wondering what to do, think of me as one you d never figured
Cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger, red means run, so the powers that be left me here to do the thinkin
With a big red beacon, but when the first shot hit the docks i saw it coming, big john s been drinking since the river took emmy-lou
Numbers add up to nothing, raised my rifle to my eye Cowboy, raised my rifle to my eye
Remember me to my love, and my face splashed in the sky, red means run
Think of me as one you d never figured, daddy s gone
big john s been drinking since the river took emmy-lou
Daddy s gone, and i just turned twenty-two
And i just turned twenty-two, and it s making big waves
And the closer they got, and the closer they got
And my face splashed in the sky, i know i ll miss her Powderfinger, i know i ll miss her
And it s less than a mile away, my brother s out hunting in the mountains
there s a white boat coming up the river
And it s making big waves, there s a white boat coming up the river, shelter me from the powder and the finger
Daddy s rifle in my hand felt reassuring, then i saw black
My brother s out hunting in the mountains, think of me as one you d never figured
But when the first shot hit the docks i saw it coming, big john s been drinking since the river took emmy-lou
