Lyrics
My pistols were my next-of-kin
Gunmetal cradled 'gainst my skin
They're cold and hard to sleep with, yes
But I'm just drawn that way, I guess
I'll hang my hat with the heart-shaped pendant
I'll hang my head as they hang me high
Now don't you go crying for me, you hear?
We still had a good run, you and I
I'll hang my hat with the heart-shaped pendant
I'll hang my head as they hang me high
Got no last words, got nothing to say
'Cept good-bye
Well sure, I made a stiff or two
I made a real mess of things, it's true
But if this will fix it all
Then it's the good judge and jury's call
I'll hang my hat with the heart-shaped pendant
I'll leave my boots by the door
Wear them if you want, they're yours now
So that's it then
Nothing to add
Nothing to say
I'll hang my hat with the heart-shaped pendant
I'll hang my head as they hang me high
...Hell no, I'll hold my head up high as they hang me high
To dry
