That Ain't How It Happened
TitanChord
Intro
Let me tell you how it happened—
THAT AIN'T HOW IT HAPPENED!
Verse 1
Ten men came with their irons drawn
High noon sun, and I stood my ground
TWO DRUNK BOYS! AND IT WAS RAININ'!
I walked through fire, not a scratch on me
HE WENT OUT A WINDOW! WE ALL SAW IT!
Chorus
Ten men came and ten men fell
THAT AIN'T HOW IT HAPPENED
I lit the match and walked through hell
TWO DRUNK BOYS — AND HE RAN LIKE HELL
Verse 2
I robbed the First National in broad daylight
Cleaned the vault with a borrowed gun
IT WAS A MAILBOX! IT WAS TUESDAY!
Got this scar in a knife fight down in Juarez
HE FELL OFF HIS HORSE IN FRONT OF THE CHURCH!
Chorus
Ten men came and ten men fell
THAT AIN'T HOW IT HAPPENED
I lit the match and walked through hell
TWO DRUNK BOYS — AND HE RAN LIKE HELL
Bridge
Now hold on — who's tellin' this story?
WE ALL ARE!
Well... at least you're tellin' it.
Ten men came and ten men fell
THAT AIN'T HOW IT HAPPENED
I lit the match and walked through hell
TWO DRUNK BOYS — AND HE RAN LIKE HELL
Outro
Ten men came and ten men fell...
He lit the match and walked through hell...
Tours at ten and two. Cash only. Stand where he stood alone.
