Cover Me

[Verse 1]
We saw it through until the end of Chickamauga
Headed west in '64
And we've been moving since the war wound down
We ain't running anymore

[Refrain]
Had it coming a long time
Had it coming a long time

[Verse 2]
We're pinned down with our backs to the wall
This ammo belt is all I got
If you can get me to the horses out there
Maybe then we got a shot

[Refrain]
Had it coming a long time
Had it coming a long time

[Chorus]
Cover me
We're getting out
On the count of three
Cover me
Cover me
Cover me

[Verse 3]
There was a time when they couldn't get close enough
To catch us in the open like this
There comes a time for everyone's son
But for us this isn't it

[Refrain]
Had it coming a long time
Had it coming a long time

[Chorus]
Cover me
We're getting out
On the count of three
Cover me
Cover me
Cover me

[Bridge]
The daylight is fading
It's time we move on
I plan on escaping
And I'm not going back alone
Ain't going back alone
Ain't going back alone
Ain't going back alone

[Refrain]
Had it coming a long time
Had it coming a long time

[Chorus]
Cover me
We're getting out
On the count of three
Cover me

[Chorus]
Cover me
We're getting out
On the count of three
Cover me
Cover me
Cover me
