All my life, yeah just about every night i saw my father as a drunken stranger,
And i heard her cry just about every time she felt his anger, and it broke her body
Six shots exploded through the action
And i brought peace back into our home,
Would his apologies be proven
Well, i don't care and we'll never know
So i walked away thinking his debt was paid but all i had was my mother, the shotgun and the blues
