[Intro]
~#**************#~

[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Well now a gun shot lick and a marrow it fly
~#**************#~
Little youth with the 45 and him say do or die

~#**************#~
And she remember when him was little bit and oh so shy
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Forgive them father cause they know not what they have done
