The Noose

from Bring Em On Home by Good Luck Ola

/

lyrics

You ride on the copper rock mesas with your canteen and hat
A blanket slung under your saddle
And the sunrise shooting ya in the back
You say it'd be all for the better if you broke that girl's heart
You were leading her on with the duties
Of a life of a wife on a farm

You say love's like a tree in a field with just two things to do
And it'll bear good fruit or it'll hold the noose that hangs you

The tortoise you used for a pillow has awoken and left
And the water you thought ran beside you
Is just sand and snake breath
You say it'd be all for the better if you went thirsty or starved
She used the last of the town's water for her tears
And it's all your fault

You say love's like a tree in a field with just two things to do
And it'll bear good fruit or it'll hold the noose that hangs you

You say love's like a tree in a field with just two things to do
And it'll bear good fruit or it'll hold the noose that hangs you
