350 Parts of Carbon

350 Parts of Carbon

By X. B. Cold Fingers

I had a girl, lord, I loved her to the skies.
Soft shining hair, lord, and a smile like the sunrise.
she brought the light, lord, brought the love light to my eyes.
When she was scared, lord, the angels heard her cries.

But she's gone now, she's six feet down and gone,
And so's the light, now, my heart is broke and torn.

I took my gun, lord, best friend in a law man's world.
357 Magnum freedom's flag unfurled.
We went hunting, to find the rat who took my girl.
To bring to justice the rat who shook my world.

Yes she's gone now, she's six feet down and gone,
and so's the light, now, my heart is broke and torn.

I found the rat who took my girl from me.
It was the river, overflowed to a raging sea.
A gun ain't much use against floods of the angry sea.
Global stormin’ from me and you to you and me.

350 parts of carbon would stop the floods that took my girl.
350 parts of carbon would stop the floods that shook apart my world.

Yes she's gone now, she's six feet down and gone,
and so's the light, now, and my heart is broke and torn.
