dust of the chase - ray wylie hubbard lyrics

Loading...

i come down from oklahoma with a pistol in my boot
a pair of dice, a deck of cards and a bible in my suit
i come her as the cause of tears, i am a crying shame
seven stud or eternal blood, just looking for a game

i double crossed the state of texas and they give me a little time
i taught myself to doublecut the cards and hold scriptures in my mind
i learned to love the tumblin dice and to believe the word
tombstones or rolling bones, beats anything i ever heard.

patience is a virtue that i don’t possess
and i can’t deny that heavan lies beneath a cotton dress
how small a part of time we share ’till we hear the sound of wings
i’m lost in the dust of the chase that my life brings.

i have walked through god’s green pastures and seen the rich blue skies
i have seen the fall of man and the kingdom hidden from his eyes
i have heard the roar of thunder and felt the lightening bolt
and when i walk through the valley of the shadow of death i take along
samuel colt

every night i kiss the cards and hold them to my breast
and when i see the king of hearts i know that i am blessed
and though my eyes are blind sometimes, i know there’s something there
and when the times at hand and i kill a man, i say a little prayer.

i come down from oklahoma with a pistol in my boot
a pair of dice, a deck of cards and a bible in my suit
how small a part of time we share ’till we hear the sound of wings
i’m lost in the dust of the chase that my life brings.

how small a part of time we share ’till we hear the sound of wings
lost in the dust of the chase that my life brings.
