Paul Hansen - Doc McGraw

I'll go get Doc McGraw
Before he's in his cups
I'll go get the sawbones
So he can sew you up
We heard the bullets flying
A little bit past noon
The blood it hit the floor
Down at Bart's saloon
Go now and grab the doctor
Before he's in his cups
Despite you were a Redleg
He will sew you up
Jayhawkers and Bushwhackers
Missouri bleeding Kansas
Drinking down memories
Because they just
Can't stand it
The war now in the past
The war now in a glass
They never get too far
From all the battle scars
The afternoon was peaceful
The gunshots broke the lull
Mixing words and whiskey
And talk of Bill Quantrill
The pain carved on his face
Outcast and out of place
They share the same dark story
The bloodshed with no glory
Their worn down ask the dust
Spurs worn down ask the rust
Eyes look out through a haze
Praying for end of days
Cast from the Garden it was deemed
The fall of man the devil's scheme
We heard the bullets flying
A little bit past noon
The blood it hit the floor
Down at Bart's saloon
So I'll go get the doctor
Before he's in his cups
Despite you were a Redleg
He will sew you up
The pain carved on their face
Outcast and out of place
The fire scorched their path
They hear the demon laugh
Jayhawkers and Bushwhackers
Missouri bleeding Kansas
Drinking down memories
And all the things life hands us
The war now in the past
Stuck in the shadows cast
They never get too far
From all the battle scars
Behind their eyes dark secrets
At the brink to they're full
What's a man's breaking point
Or the weight he can pull
