Mud In Your Eye

You used to leave your scent
 On his whiskey soaked collar
 You both would paint the town
 Drink up his very last dollar
 And then you loved him for fun
 And rode away when it was done
 Now he? s confused and I know why
 Ain? t that mud in your eye?
 Ain? t like rain?
 Remember lively little Richard
 But his men were painting town
 You were in need of attention
 So he thought he? d take you on down
 And there you first saw me
 And realized you were no longer free
 'Cause true love good girls can? t deny
 It comes and goes like mud in you? re eye
 Sometimes a victim can run
 But not when both have been? von
 And I ain? t no stranger
 I built you up to shoot you down
 Once you could thrill me
 Now I? m the jury
 And you? ll be a cinch to convict
 Your boy? s gonna make the great escape
 While you're laid bare on the ground
 This vengeance had to and in crime
 I built you up and shoot you down
 You know I? m not usually that kind
 But you didn? t know he was a brother of mine
 But I? ll just laugh if you cry
 Now ain? t that mud in your eye
