moonlight on the bourbon

moonlight on the bourbon
and murder on the brain
caught a glimpse of your intentions
then caught the midnight train

now i'm headin' south to georgia
won't be comin' round again
won't be fallin for your skirt tails
won't be shakin' by your skin

oh there's moonlight on the bourbon
and a killer on the run
there's the smell of blood and entrails
sulfur rising from the gun

you spent your last night preaching
how you're nothing like the son
just another long gone loner
seeking shelter from the sun

oh you've felt the pull of that mighty pole
you've never known what for
you've just been leaking out your life blood
letting it puddle on the floor

and the bastards keeping tabs on you
they've banned you from this town
sent you scramblin' from the moonlight
sent you runnin underground..
