Lyrics: Vetiver. Otras Canciones. I Know No Pardon.

:
Maria please don't leave me

now I need ya

I'ma wanted

there's nowhere I can go

My up's turned down

my luck's spun round and left me

no I didn't see it comin

but oh I'ma watchin it go

so I chose the company of those

who don't need protection

took a new name,

mostly to fool my friends

swore off the days

when I had to count on others

cause courtin the knife means

countin your days to the end



I made enemies of those

who might defend me

Partnered with men

liable to do me in

snake in my way,

past deals will make you wonder

what kind of heaven

are these killers dying to win

did I lose my way

or did I just play

the cards the way

the dealer gave em to me

I try not to regret

the things that I've done yet

I know no pardon pity for the guilty



some games you play well

well you lose

sometimes you're dealt

you don't get to choose

some guns get drawn

but you don't need to use them

some tried that

before their troubles begin

oh but I oh but I

I've seen the handle

I had the women

and the law(lord?) by my side

I climbed so high

the sky dropped down to teach me

how to lay low and

keep my ear to the ground



I'll get caught one day

least that's what they say

repayins are but a killers way of trying

dont' ask me to confess

my peace will come on rest

confessin's just

an honest way of lying

my blues are tangled and are cursed with the fear of knowing

no allibis or ties

left to keep me going
