Pin Hits The Shell
By Drive-by Truckers
You can Flie to your Mama, you can Clie to your race
But you Fcant lie to nobody with that Bbcold steel in your face
And the Fsame God that youre so afraid is gonna Csend you to hell
Is the Fsame one youre gonna answer to when the Bbpin hits the shell
Well, Your Fsisters been blaming everyCbody
I dont Fblame her, man, I guess Id do the Bbsame
if you was my Fbrother, man, Id probably stand Cby you.
But you Faint, man, so I got to go my Bbway.
Chorus 1:
And I aint gonna Dmcrawl upon no high horse
Cause I Bbgot thrown off of one
When I was Fyoung and I aint no cowboy
So I aint Bbgoing where I dont belong
It Dmwouldnt do you no good to let you know that
It Bbdamned near killed me too
So I aint gonna Fmourn for you, man, now that youre Bbgone
Me and you, we liked our pills and our whiskey
But you dont want your head full of either one when the house gets quiet and dark
Having fun used to be so damned easy
Racing trains from 2nd Street to Avalon
Chorus 2:
Take a trip down memory lane
You dont see no friendly faces
All the houses have been painted and
Nobody knows your name.
Its enough to make a man not want
To be nobodys Daddy
When all he thinks hes got left to hand down is guilt and shame
Chorus 1
You can lie to your Mama, you can lie to your race
But you cant lie to nobody with that cold steel in your face
And the same God that youre so afraid is gonna send you to hell
Is the same one youre gonna answer to when the pin hits the shell
