Before The Bullets Fly – Gregg Allman (live version)
By
Well I hate to leave you, baby I just can’t waste no time You’ve got this jealous husband I’m too, too young to die I gotta move on away from ’round here Just before those bullets fly
Always been a gambler Takin’ chances all of my life Bustin’ up love affairs Just like shootin’ dice I staged the game, girl That’s what keeps me satisfied And I can leave here in the nick of time Just before those bullets fly
I lost my first bet When I was twenty-one Found myself in New Orleans On the wrong end of a gun The stakes keep getting higher But I’m still satisfied By knowin’ when the need became Just before those bullets fly I’m knowing when the need became Just before those bullets fly I’m knowing…
