They Ain't Swallowing Melodies Lyrics
Verse 1
Running round the outskirts of backwater nowhere town
She be waiting there with her short skirt wearing a frown
Jumped in her pickup man, freedom never felt so good
Screaming down the highway, and killed a man where he stood
Chorus 1
Law men following us everywhere
You can try to catch me kill me if you can
Shake yeah
Verse 2
We were just two crazy kids that had fallen in love
Terrorizing towns for their money or lack thereof
Never met a finer woman and I thank god every day
Lasted till the border where I shot her and I threw her away
Chorus 2
Judges at the gallows wanna see me swing
But my six shooters warmed up and ready to sing
Shake yeah
Verse 3
Caught me at the corner where I was standing trying to catch a ride.
But man did they learn that day I won’t go down without a fight.
Stood me on the platform and they’re acting like I give a damn
Pulling on the noose man all I could do was laugh
Chorus 3
They might have caught my body but they won’t get my soul
Leave it for the afterlife and god’s control
Shake yeah
Running round the outskirts of backwater nowhere town
She be waiting there with her short skirt wearing a frown
Jumped in her pickup man, freedom never felt so good
Screaming down the highway, and killed a man where he stood
Law men following us everywhere
You can try to catch me kill me if you can
We were just two crazy kids that had fallen in love
Terrorizing towns for their money or lack thereof
Never met a finer woman and I thank god every day
Lasted till the border where I shot her and I threw her away
Judges at the gallows wanna see me swing
But my six shooters warmed up and ready to sing
Caught me at the corner where I was standing trying to catch a ride.
But man did they learn that day I won’t go down without a fight.
Stood me on the platform and they’re acting like I give a damn
Pulling on the noose man all I could do was laugh
They might have caught my body but they won’t get my soul
Leave it for the afterlife and god’s control
