Lori McKenna - American Revolver lyrics

She's crying again You lay quiet on her chest She knows you're a dangerous comfort But you haven't broken her heart yet She wants to feel safe again She thinks that you understand Maybe it's crazy maybe it's brave Either way it's a losing game She's hoping she'll know what to do With a 6 shot 22 When the only one who's innocent is cold blue steel For the first time someone's listening to how she feels Lord knows you can't save her You can't stop or change her plans Just an American revolver You're proof she means what she says It's a fairer fight with you around To rescue her if things get so bad There's no other possible way out She keeps going back and forth Between herself and the door When the only one who's innocent is cold blue steel For the first time someone's listening to how she feels Lord knows you can't save her You can't stop or change her plans Just an American revolver Too late now for I'm sorry - American revolver He's coming up the front steps - American revolver He's been drinking again She keeps going back and forth Between herself and the door When the only one who's innocent is cold blue steel But this time someone's gonna listen to how she feels Lord knows you can't save her You can't stop or change her plans Just an American revolver
