I Shot You Down

I Shot You Down - Ryan Downe

I have been awakened

By an urgent caller's ringing

But I really don't come to

Until I hear the speaker

It's a job for me to do

A name address a place

Where I can reach her

I'm to call her back as soon

As I know the job is through

And I know that there'll never be

A heaven free

As I light up my lucky

Get in my car

Drive to the place

I've been told that you are

And I I shot you down copper

And it was my will

As I see the life leave from your eyes

I know that this is one time

That you won't bring me in

And I I shot you down copper

And it was my will

And as you fall beneath my headlights

I straighten on my hat and disappear

I know I have just killed a man

While I shot you down copper

And it was my will

As I see the life leave from your eyes

I know that this is one time

That you won't bring me in

And I I shot you down copper

And it was my will

And as you fall beneath my headlights

I straighten on my hat and disappear

They will never catch me

'Cause I love the job I do

It's just a shiver of my spine

And a squeeze of the trigger
