Hey hey Davy Brown

You weren't born a killer

But ya can't tell it now

Take that shotgun

Saw it on down

A string full of ears

For Davy Brown

One step ahead of that hangman's noose

Gonna take 'em all with ya when they come for you

Hey hey Davy Brown

Keep yer eye on the coin

And yer ear to the ground

Your whitneyville colt

Shot a buncha men down

You're one bloody bastard Davy Brown

One step ahead of that hangman's noose

Gonna take 'em all with ya when they come for you

Davy Brown, Davy Brown

Where ya gonna be when the hammer comes down?

Can you outshoot the devil? Outrun his hounds?

Ain't nothing to it but to stay above ground

Hey hey Davy Brown

Woke up in jail

For the last time now

Set a boy a fire

In a west coast town

It's a dance with the gallows

For Davy Brown

Dance with the gallows

For Davy Brown

Don't believe in hell

But he figures somehow

Even if it's real

It's gonna spit him back out

Davy Brown, Davy Brown

Where ya gonna be when the hammer comes down?

Can you outshoot the devil? Outrun his hounds?

Ain't nothing to it but to stay above ground
