Lyrics
His Biggest Crime
(Verse 1)
She left her home in Nashville
When she was very young
Lost her heart to that rebel guy
A brown eyed outlaw son of a gun
He took her to dark ?n unknown places
They were always on the run
I give you all the world he said
But she found pain ?n sorrow instead
She was livin? in a barless prison room
It seemed so easy to walk out
But his empty eyes were everywhere
Blindfolded, she couldn?t even fancy a glare
(Chorus)
He was a brazened gypsy guy
Most of his life he?d done time
He turned his so called love into a lie
And that she called his biggest crime
(Verse 2)
It was late one evenin?
As she watched her life roll by
Her eyes were wet of desperate tears
Then he came in, she heard the bullits fly
And now it was she saw her freedom shinin?
The bounty hunter said to her
Go girl go, I know he did you wrong
Go home now, go home were you belong
Away from home so awf ?ly long
Livin? a nightmare ev?ry single day
He died from the bullit of a law man?s gun
Her future laughs and now the past is all done
(Repeat chorus)
(Bridge)
Today she?s on her way to fill that empty chair
Which hold her as a child, when she said her first prayers
She almost can reach the day and soon she will be able
To gather with friends and family around the table
(Repeat chorus and fade)
