say.&lt;br /&gt;I didn't think so back then, until that day.&lt;br /&gt;The go'damn guy haunted me.&lt;br /&gt;Grandfather was a lawman, I suppose&lt;br /&gt;I got it from him.&lt;br /&gt;Haunted two go'damn years...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back then, those guys they never holster'd.&lt;br /&gt;I guess I didn't feel the need to either.&lt;br /&gt;Them folks up here find that hard to believe,&lt;br /&gt;But them southe'ners don't think too unlikely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I always liked to hear 'bout them folks,&lt;br /&gt;But the go'damn guy haunted me.&lt;br /&gt;Maybe not the younger, but now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If only the go'damn guy knew 'bout me.&lt;br /&gt;I ain't never missed a chance;&lt;br /&gt;Knew ev'ryone's phone number off by heart,&lt;br /&gt;Knew they'd all stay

would do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was this boy once I sent away back town,&lt;br /&gt;And Lord knows I'd not hesitate twice.&lt;br /&gt;But this was different, I reckon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fucking guy, I'd get him.&lt;br /&gt;The papers'd call it a crime of passion.&lt;br /&gt;I'd call it necessary;&lt;br /&gt;Go'damn guy nearly killed her;&lt;br /&gt;There'd be no passion about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd been plannin' on gettin' him for 'slong as I could remember.&lt;br /&gt;I'd not even turn m'self in, because I know go'damn right he'd do it again unless I was there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Met him in a dream once,&lt;br /&gt;Told him he was going to hell.&lt;br /&gt;He said he knew.&lt;br /&gt;I didn't quite know what to make of that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I knew from the beginning:&lt;br /&gt;To do my job, you'd have to be willin' to die.&lt;br /&gt;I'd die if the go'damn fucker was comin' too.&lt;br /&gt;At least that way she'd be safe.&lt;br /&gt;If he didn't, I'd get myself into somethin' I don't understand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I ever holster'd 'em, I'd lose my soul to an already soul-less man.&lt;br /&gt;Even if it'd take
