Georgia Law Man

They caught hell down on that county line
He said: Georgia law man, he ain't taking what's mine!
And I knew it came a little too soon my dear
'Cause he'd been fighting his way through the Southern States
With a bottle of whiskey and a few mistakes
And then fell right into love with a girl named Grace

He said: Well, I died today when you took my breath away
With that Oklahoma sunshine on your face
And I'd find a way to promise you forever
Even if forever means I'm gonna have to sell my soul today

So they rode together just-a raising Cain
Cheatin' death out of them poker games
And then knockin' on the bank on the back way out of town
With the marshal's boys never far behind and then West Virginia out on the horizon
He thought it best to let her know right now

He said: We could've died today, but I loved you all the way
And I'd go right down to Hell just to set you free
And I'd find a way to promise you forever
Even if forever means dying right here with you next to me

Ooh, oooh
I said ooh, oh
Oooh

So when Hell came down on that county line
And all they could remember was the Oklahoma sunshine
She looked at him, and he looked away, he said
I heard West Virginia looks just like heaven
And right here's about as close as were getting and I-
I don't think were going to win this one but hey

We're gonna die today, but I've loved you all the way
And I'd go right down to Hell just to set you free
And I'd find a way to promise you forever
Even if forever means dying right here with you next to me

Oooh, oooh
I said oooh, oh
Oooh
