Lyrics The New Amsterdams

The New Amsterdams

My Old Man Had A Pistol

My old man had a pistol

Never carried around

Never taught me to use it, yeah

No blood on the ground

Images of a family

Somewhere deep in the South

Wished that girl taking pictures, yeah

Drag me out

Stand inside

Knees fall to the ground

I pray take me far away

From everything that I am

Must have lost all my memories

Must have blacked 'em all out

Thank god for the pictures, yeah

Didn't burn in the house

Stand inside

Knees fall to the ground

I pray take me far away

From everything that I am

I pray take me far away

Everything that I am

Escape is the only way out

Escape is the only way out

Escape is the only way out

Only way out
