Lyrics
TAKE ME HOME Copyright © 2008 David Check / Mike Mattera Gunfire still echoes thru the canyon Bloodstains still clouds her tears As she gently rides with this lifeless treasure His dying words still echo through her ears. * Take me back to my home Don’t bury me here all alone 2x Neath some sun-scorched sand and stone Take me back to my home Baby please, take me home He never thought he’d taste that angry bullet An outlaw mean and hard until the end He never thought the law would beat his trigger To die beside his love his only friend She screamed when he went down And through the smoke she found The tears he never dared show before And when he came around His voice a softer sound As he whispered words, And wouldn’t let her go Baby please….*
