Elliott Adkins - Black Clothes Lyrics

They're always showin' up in
Black clothes
Why they do it only they know
Daddy tells me what I see is only in my head
But I know

They whisper to me they've got
Big dreams
Like puppet masters, they pull
The strings
Call 'em demons, call them anything you please
But I know

They're always showin' up at bad times
All around me, bad signs
I know the way, but I forget to close my eyes sometimes
But I know

Six-shooter with nine lives
Do the math and don't think twice
Tell me what you want to see before you die
Cause I know
I know, I know
Don't tell me cause I know

Wait a little while now, hangman
Wait a little while and see
I think I see my mama comin' way across the sea

Mama, did you bring me silver?
Mama, did you bring me gold?
What did you bring me, dear Mama
To keep me from the gallows pole?

No, I didn't bring you silver
No, I didn't bring you gold
I came to see you swingin'
From the gallows pole

Wait a little while now, hangman
Wait a little while and see
I think I see my daddy comin' way
Across the sea

Daddy, did you bring me silver?
Daddy, did you bring me gold?
Daddy tells me what I see is only in
My head
But I know

I know, I know
Don't tell me 'cause I know
Call 'em demons, call them anything
You please
But I know

They're always showing up in
Black clothes
Why they do it only they know
Think I see my lover comin' way across the sea

Lover, did you bring me silver?
Lover, did you bring me gold?
Tell me what you wanna see before
You die
Cause I know
I know, I know
Don't tell me 'cause I know
What did you bring me, dear lover
To keep me from the gallows pole?

Six-shooter with nine lives
Lover, did you bring me gold?
Tell me what you wanna see
Before you're swinging from the gallows pole
No, I didn't bring you silver
She said, No, I didn't bring you gold
I know the way but I forget to close my eyes sometimes
But I know

I know, I know
Don't tell me cause I know

Tell me what you wanna see before you die
Cause I know
I know, I know
Don't tell me cause I know

Tell me what you wanna see before you die
Cause I know
I know, I know
Don't tell me cause I know

Tell me what you wanna see before you die
Cause I know
I know, I know
Don't tell me cause I know

Tell me what you wanna see before you die
Cause I know
I know, I know
Don't tell me cause I know
