Partners - Eric Fish

Mister did you come in search of water

I’ll bet you’re thirsty, wrong or right

How’d you like to be my partner

Mister will you ride with me tonight

There’s a house upon the hillside

The people there ain’t no damn good

They’ve got gold and they’ve got silver

I’d like to have it if I could

Feel that wind

Feel it blow

There’s worse than stealin'

When a man is tired and cold

You know my life has been a nightmare

I won’t bore you with the news

But I can sum you up by lookin'

I ain’t no hungrier than you

Hey friend, sorry that you’re dyin'

I didn’t know he had a gun

Such a shame to leave you lyin'

But you know I’ve got to run

You know the law has got a long arm

I’ve been around I know it well

But if they’re ever gonna catch me

They’ll have to chase me into hell
