Lawman's Daughter - The Weeks

Well I think times are changing momma

Break my spirit and kill my pride

She might be the lawman’s daughter

But I’m gonna make that girl my bride

I said, «Son I’m sorry but that can’t happen»

Our kind just don’t mix with them

You might love the lawman’s daughter

But your family’s filled with wanted men

I said, «Oh, how bad could it be?»

For a law filled girl to love a man like me

Chasing ten car trains and whiskey dames don’t mean a thing

Just as long as I got her with me

Well you know that sheriffs been looking for you

He knows y’all been robbing trains

If he sees you with his daughter

He won’t stop 'til he sees you hang

Well Christian hearts don’t feed no families

Guns and trains mean moneys good

Tell that sheriffs that’s been looking for me

Hang me up, I wish you would

I said, «Oh, how bad could it be?»

For a law filled girl to love a man like me

Chasing ten car trains and whiskey dames don’t mean a thing

Just as long as I got her with me
