  1. Mary And Me

Lyrics

Mary said she hid it down in the hollow
Where we would go walking’ and no one would follow
We were just kids, only thirteen and twelve
A lifetime ago, but I remember it well

By the time we hit sixteen we were running fast
Jackin’ traders on the trails from here to Spokane
I never felt bad although we were awful
‘Cause it kept me out the mine and Mary out the brothel

Our first payin’ gig was a hell of a mess
A man went to draw, we put two in his chest
What happened next was kind of a blur
We left three men dead and one badly hurt

After that I guess I never gave it much a thought
Any man that posed a threat was a man that got shot
Only concern was getting out alive 
With the loot in my hand and Mary by my side

When my name first hit the papers I was 25
$10,000 Reward: Wanted Dead or Alive
I Dreamed up a scheme, Mary could turn me in
I escaped once before, I could do it again

Well my death toll was doubled by the time I got done
I shot the sheriff with the deputy’s gun
Was a hellacious ride back to the rendezvous
With the Marshall on my trail and the Crow counting coup

Well the cock of the gun was a deafening sound
Marshall broke the silence, said, “Son, get on the ground.”
But Mary drew and shot faster than lightning
And thunder rang out under a red sun rising

When I turned to Mary I knew something wasn’t right
By the red on her lips and the fear in her eyes
In the moment I did all I knew how
And a few short words was all that time would allow

Mary said she hid it down in the hollow
Where we would go walkin’ and no one would follow
We were just kids, only thirteen and twelve
A lifetime ago but I remember it well…
