Cover Me

We saw it through until the end of Chickamauga

Headed west in '64

We been moving since the war wound down

We ain't running anymore

Had it coming a long time

Had been coming a long time

Pinned down with our backs to the wall

This ammo belt is all I got

If you can get me to the horses out there

Maybe then we got a shot

Had it coming a long time

Had it coming a long time

Cover me

We're getting out

On the count of three

Cover me, cover, cover me

There was a time when they couldn't get close enough

To catch us in the open like this

There comes a time for everyone's son

But for us this isn't it

Had it coming a long time

Had it coming a long time

Cover me

We're getting out

On the count of three

Cover me, cover me, cover me

Daylight is fading

It's time we move on

I plan on escaping

And I'm not going back alone

Ain't going back alone

Ain't going back alone

Ain't going back alone

Had it coming a long time

Had it coming a long time

Cover me

We're getting out

On the count of three

Cover me

Cover me

We're getting out

On the count of three

Cover me, cover me, cover me
