[(Classic Southern Dark Outlaw Country)]
...
[Intro]
The wind blows dust through the pines tonight,
A coyote laughs 'til the morning light.
My boots weigh heavy, my soul is tar,
Only the fire knows who we are.
[Verse 1]
I rode through the Delta with blood on my shirt,
Every sheriff around knew my name was a curse.
No prayer in my pocket, no gold in my hand,
Just an old six-gun and a burned-out land.
The sky turned black like scorched bourbon smoke,
These roads have swallowed men for ages untold.
I raised up my glass and I cursed at the wind:
"A man with nothing left can never be bent."
[Chorus]
Bourbon and Blood — spilled into the dust,
Every scar's a story carved from broken trust.
Bourbon and Blood — till the morning arrives,
We'll carry the storm as long as we're alive.
Hey... Bourbon and Blood...
[Verse 2]
The campfire crackles like bones in the frost,
Every drink tastes of freedom, betrayal, and loss.
My hands wear the scars, my eyes turned to stone,
And the moon hangs a gallows where the cold winds moan.
A woman sang hope from a window of light,
But hope never settled a debt in the night.
I tipped down my hat and disappeared with the dark,
'Cause love only leaves deeper wounds on the heart.
[Bridge]
When Death carves my name in an old wooden board,
Let him know that my fire was never his to own.
No chain, no judge, no rope, and no gold
Ever broke an outlaw with a hard-beating soul.
[Final Chorus]
Bourbon and Blood — raise your fists to the sky,
For the damned who still hear the storm crying high.
Bourbon and Blood — till the last embers die,
Legends never fade... they just burn through the night.
Bourbon and Blood...
Bourbon and Blood...
Till the Devil just smiles:
"Come on in, son... the fire's still warm."
