My old man had a pistol
Never carried around
Never taught me to use it, yeah
No butt on the ground
Images of a family
Somewhere deep in the South
Wish that girl’d taken pictures, yeah
Dragged me out
Stand inside
Knees fall to the ground
I pray take me far away
From everything that I am
Must’ve lost all my memories
Must’ve blacked 'em all out
Thank God for the pictures, yeah
Didn’t burn in the house
Stand inside
Knees fall to the ground
I pray take me far away
From everything that I am
Escape is the only way out
