Brennan Scott Greene - C96

My Mesa mamacita, estacada seńorita
I got lost in the love of her smile
Had I seen the signs, I'da left me some leaving lines
Staked 'em out every mile
Oh she left me in ruin, now the deeds that I'm doin'
Being a bleeding Scotch-Irish Choctaw
Which a heart that's been broken, I'm drinking and smoking
Singing bold Erin go Bragh, 'til my voice is raw
With a fire water fix and my C96, I set out for old Lubbock Town
Found my woman who left and the bastard who by his theft
Forced me to gun 'em down
But they won't hang me tonight, through my broom handle sight
I saw the certainty of what would be my lot
No I ain't Marty Robbins, won't be singing or sobbins
From a cell, though they'll twist the knot
But I ain't getting caught
So whether singing or crying, I won't be swinging or dying
I'm leaving out just a little after light
Down south to a town with a night that needs burning down
And a woman worth holding tight
Oh you know I'll take her for a special time
And maybe make her think that I'm handsome and handy as a glove
Babe I'm built big as a bull, a bronc sticking, tune picking fool
And lucky as an October dove
Oh she'll fall in love
So señorita would you go with me across to Mexico
For laying low with some friends of mine
A Mescalero Apache band, way back in the desert land
I figure they'd fancy fighting fine
Should the federales come, should they force our hands to fighting some
Them seven Spanish angels better pray
With a fire water fix and my German C96
My mercy may let 'em slip away
Out of kindness say
