Lawman ( О й с я ) Lyrics

And he woke up one morning

And saw the city was a dream

Everything was burning

And he resolved to be free of it

To save his soul and body

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I've got a pint and M16

I'm headed for the country

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I'm just leaving the city

I'm headed for the county

I worked in the city

Moving numbers on a screen

I sat at a desk eight hours a day

Under fluorescent lighting

I was barely making pennies

I found a job on a ranch in town

To try and feel my body

Until the land was bought out by some

Investors from Silicon Valley

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I've got a pint and M16

I'm headed for the country

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I'm just leaving the city

I'm headed for the county

I took a boat down the Mississippi

Hauling cargo in the evenings

I met a girl but she ghosted me

When she heard I had no money

So I started a savings and a 401k

I was looking for a house on the bay

I think I could make a living wage

If my paycheck wasn't half my pay

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I've got a pint and M16

I'm headed for the country

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I'm just leaving the city

I'm headed for the county

I worked long hours and I made my way

Things started to finally look my way

That was all until the day

The government came through my doorway

They said "Real heroes will sacrifice

They have no regard for their own life

Now get in the car we're shipping you away

To fight and die in Ukraine"

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I've got a pint and M16

I'm headed for the country

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I'm just leaving the city

I'm headed for the county

And he woke up one morning

And the sun was glowing

Everything was burning

And he bowed and prayed

Thanking God for judgement day

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I've got a pint and M16

I'm headed for the country

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I'm just leaving the city

I'm headed for the county

Cause over the bodies of children

The Cossacks will come charging in

When you least expect it

When you least expect it

Lawman, lawman

You don't need to worry

I've got a pint and M16

I'm headed for the country
