Aces & Eights

We only take what we need
 in black and white
 the city bleeds
 Love cuts you down to the bone
 and walks these streets
 with the eyes of a hunter
 Bad blood flows from
 the father to the son
 how red the river runs, yeah
 Love was the law
 for sinners and saints
 dead man's hand holds
 aces & eights
 We're bound by wire, blood and fate
 hanging on to nothing
 aces & eights
 We let each other bleed
 and watch our bones
 fall in the dust
 you can hear the children howl
 it's all they see
 in the hour of the wolf
 Bad blood flows from
 the father to the son
 how red the river runs, yeah
 Love was the law
 for sinners and saints
 the dead man's hand holds
 aces & eights
 We're bound by wire, blood and fate
 hanging on to nothing
 Love was the law
 sinners and saints
 dead man's hand holds
 aces & eights
 We're bound by wire, blood and fate
 hanging on to nothing
 hey, aces & eights
 Daytime
 nighttime
 standing in line
 at the border
 i wanna lay down the law
 i wanna tell 'em how it should be
 Bad blood flows from
 the father to the son
 how red the river runs, yeah
 love was the law
 Love was the law
 for sinners and saints
 the dead man's hand holds
 aces & eights
 We're bound by wire, blood and fate
 hanging on to nothing
 Love was the law
 for sinners and saints
 the dead man's hand holds
 aces & eights
 We're bound by wire, blood and fate
 hanging on to nothing
