High and Loaded

[Verse] Underneath the starry night sky, with a shotgun in my hand, I feel the weight of freedom, in this wild and waiting land. A joint tucked in my pocket, rollin' green from my own stash, The smoke curls with the bullets, and the moments never last. [Verse 2] I can hear the coyotes crying, like lost souls in the night, With every puff of cannabis, I feel my mind take flight. The hollow barrel of my gun, it points to all my fears, As I light another spliff, and let it all disappear. [Chorus] High and loaded, in this broken hearted town, Where the whiskey flows like water, and the law ain't never 'round. With a blunt between my lips, and a rifle by my side, I'm high and loaded, just tryin' to survive. [Verse 3] The pine trees sway like shadows, in the moon’s silver glow, In the fields, the fireflies dance, but I’ve got nowhere to go. I’m a lonesome desperado, with a habit and a past, Toking up the twilight, praying it will last. [Chorus] High and loaded, in this broken hearted town, Where the whiskey flows like water, and the law ain't never 'round. With a blunt between my lips, and a rifle by my side, I'm high and loaded, just tryin' to survive. [Verse 4] Morning comes too early, with the echoes of regret, But a hit of Mother Nature, and I slowly do forget. The cold steel in my fingers, and the warmth of burning weed, It's a deadly combination, but it’s all I'll ever need.
