puncher's chance - slaid cleaves lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i lit a candle for the lost and lonely
and i stepped out into the night
when i heard a voice call out my name
from under the streetlamp light
i knew him from my bar room days
those were rough and rowdy times
just two old men talkin’ ’bout a life long left behind

[pre*chorus]
he said, “i know that i ain’t ever goin’ back to that old life
but i’ll admit i sometimes think about those wild, wild nights”
[chorus]
i could never pass up defendin’
the honor of a workin’ girl
from some tanked*up low*life poser
tryna take her for a twirl
or schoolin’ some low*down rounder
for dealin’ that bottom card
if you mеssed with me, boys, you’d go down hard

[post*chorus]
oh, the hеadaches and the handcuffs
i’m glad to leave behind
and these days, i remember where i was last night
but sometimes, i still think that i could win
one last bar fight

[instrumental break]

[verse 2]
then i saw the old man smilin’
i saw the laughter ’round his eyes
all them stories of my glory days
he said, “those are mostly lies”
and when it came to throwin’ hands
how that whiskey made me dance
but i never had any more than a puncher’s chance
[pre*chorus]
he said, “i know that i ain’t ever goin’ back to that old life
but i’ll admit i sometimes think about those wild, wild nights”

[chorus]
i could never pass up defendin’
the honor of a workin’ girl
from some tanked*up low*life poser
tryna take her for a twirl
or schoolin’ some low*down rounder
for dealin’ that bottom card
if you messed with me, boys, you’d go down hard

[post*chorus]
oh, the headaches and the handcuffs
i’m glad to leave behind
and these days, i remember what i did last night
and sometimes, i still think that i could win
with a crooked nose and a battered jaw
and a shoulder that never healed right
maybe in the end, i guess it’s best
i’ve had my last bar fight
