paroles de chanson Pour 'Em Kinda Strong - Corb Lund

Bartender, I know you're a reasonable man
Looks like you got the run of this place
So set me up a round so's that I can see your hands
And wipe the goddamned smile off of your face

Well, I'm sure you must have heard of me, I'm lightning with my Smith
And my reputation burns all through the west
So if you know what's good for you, shut up and get the whiskey
And not that trade shit, I want nothin' but your best

And pour 'em kinda strong 'cause I won't be here long
Yeah, you best not do me wrong, just pour 'em kinda strong

Well, I ain't got time to savour 'em, I gotta drink 'em quick
I've conveyed my urgency, I hope
If they catch me it's all over, I'll be way on up the creek
And I'll be swingin' on the wrong end of a rope

Well, the posse's been behind me now for six or seven days
Only two hours back and chewin' on my dust
Well, I got a powerful thirst I come in here to try to slake
So serve it up or draw me if you must

And pour 'em kinda strong 'cause I won't be here long
Yeah, you best not do me wrong, pour 'em kinda strong

Well, I wasn't really watchin' you, my eyes was on the door
Imagine my surprise to hear the cock
Of that .32 that left me here to bleed out on your floor
Well, I'm too far gone to bother with the doc

Well, I wasn't really watchin' you, my eyes was to the east
You know, to dull the pain I could use one more
You surely won't deny a man a dyin' drink at least?
I'm awful embarrassed at how I spoke to you before

So pour 'em kinda strong 'cause I won't be here long
Mister, please don't do me wrong, just pour 'em kinda strong

You surely won't deny a man a dyin' drink at least?
I'm awful embarrassed at how I spoke to you before
