I used to be an only son
My heart was but a stranger
It wallowed in the races won
And craved the petty dangers

When it sat alone
And pined and pondered
Oh, the chosen roads it had to wander

Well I used to be an only son
(Yeah) My heart was but a gambler
Heavy as a loaded gun
And it howled above the weather

And it's evil ways let me forget her
And this dirty blood will burn forever
In us together

I used to be an only son
(Yeah) My heart was but a gambler
Heavy as a loaded gun
It howled above the weather

Oh it's evil ways
Let me forget her
And this dirty blood will burn forever
In us together
