Lyrics
DOMINO
Your sad face in firelight-you're getting to tired to fight
Six gun and a lonely night- life ain't quite right
They are looking for you Domino
Empty faces behind bounty schemes- a thousand dollars is a killers dream
Your heart and soul gone it seems- for the killing of Deacon Green
They are looking for you Domino
They just can't leave you alone- death is easy when the fear is gone
You know you've killed more than Deacon Green- you will get what you deserve, it seems
You are the worst so the story's told- hard and brutal, just mean and cold
Live your life out on the road- you will reap just what you sowed
They are looking for you Domino
You lead such a loveless life- dealing out sorrow, pain and strife
Now, you coward you will have to fight- they are gonna shot you down on sight
They are gonna get you Domino
They are looking for you Domino
You are gonna get you Domino
They are looking for you Domino
