Back To The Sun - The Kentucky Headhunters

Daddy told me when I was seventeen

Live straight, shoot straight

And always keep my dreams

But a man killed him

Shot him in cold blood

As he died, I held his hand

I think he knew I understood

(He said)

Follow the sun

Where the west was won

And the desert kissed the moon

One day I pray

That you won’t need this gun

But for now, keep your back to the sun

Some kill for money

Some kill for gold

I killed for vengence

Cause I guess they took my soul

Now I’m a running man

Running in the rain

I still see their faces

But the whiskey kills the pain

Follow the sun

Where the west was won

And the desert kissed the moon

One day I pray

That you won’t need this gun

But for now, keep your back to the sun

I said for now, keep your back to the sun

Yeah, for now, keep your back to the sun
