BLOOD, WHISKEY or WINE (KILLIN' TIME)

(S. Gates)

 

  I am a killer, a killer of time

  Time can't hold blood, whiskey or wine

  The bottle's half empty and I'm feelin' fine

  I am a killer, a killer of time

At the time, I was thirteen

Prettiest girl my eyes ever seen

We swam in the back pond 

All spring until fall

Til winter came freezin' the water so calm

  I am a killer, a killer of time

  Time can't hold blood, whiskey or wine

  The bottle's half empty and I'm feelin' fine

  I am a killer, a killer of time

Now listen my darlin and I'll cut us a hole

To catch us the creatures that are swimmin' below

Sat down on the ice with her fishin' pole

I pushed in my sweetheart to water so cold

As she cried for her release

From waters black and death so sweet

And as I watched her slowly fall

Time wasn't enough, enough at all

  I am a killer, a killer of time

  Time can't hold blood, whiskey or wine

  The bottle's half empty and I'm feelin' fine

   I only got tired of killin' just time
