The Porter Draw

Davey
My sister's first born, he was a cowboy a horseman, he was quick at the draw He insisted that he come with me could be dangerous on so long a haul
It was June, we left Pueblo headed down Odessa way Robbed a store in Alamosa both happy to make a payday
Hightailed it down the Rio Grande in Santa Fe we stopped for the night Out came the cards, out came the whiskey for gamblers and rounders alike
You know Davey, he's a lucky one and round and round the aces came Another man, he got saltly Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com and my deal may have been to blame
Man across, he pulled a pistol I shot him down with his cards in his hands Shot two more, he grabbed the money and out the backdoor we ran
As time goes on we hope our offspring prove better men than the men that come before As a man, as an outlaw Davey was better than I could ignore
He thought first to grab the money shot me dead by the side of the road Made it down to Mexicali He's living now with that lot of bloody gold
