Seven Men Down

Verse 1 I rolled in with a cracked white grin Mud on my boots and blood on my chin Seven hard boys talking trash By the time they moved, I made 'em dash I didn't blink, I didn't freeze I took their pride and bent their knees One by one in the county yard Left 'em face-down in the gravel hard

Pre-Chorus And the whole damn place went still When I stepped up on that hill You can call me cursed, call me wild I was born with a wolf in my smile

Chorus Seven men down, seven men down I turned that rowdy room upside down Seven men down, seven men down They heard my name and stared at the ground Cathy, say my name real slow Watch that wildfire start to glow Seven men down, seven men down I left my ghost in a killer town

Verse 2 Blackjack night at the broken bar Cold hard eyes and a slammed up jar One made a move, one made a sound I hit like thunder coming down Another laughed with a crooked jaw I took him out and broke the law Leather, dust, and a howl in the dark I drew a line and I made my mark

Pre-Chorus And the whole damn room burned red When the last fool bowed his head You can pray all night, pray all day I was born with a meaner way

Chorus Seven men down, seven men down I turned that rowdy room upside down Seven men down, seven men down They heard my name and stared at the ground Cathy, say my name real slow Watch that wildfire start to glow Seven men down, seven men down I left my ghost in a killer town

Bridge Oh, Cathy, you know my kind Bad luck tied to a hardwired mind If the devil comes, I won't run I'll meet him grinnin' under the sun Seven men down, seven men down I turned that rowdy room upside down Seven men down, seven men down They heard my name and stared at the ground Cathy, say my name real slow Watch that wildfire start to glow Seven men down, seven men down I left my ghost in a killer town
