lyrics

Dallas was a Montana Trooper.
Six foot six with a cannon on his hip
He didn’t love his wife, he didn’t love his kids.
He loved driving really fast and pulling that canonn like a whip

Dallas skipped Thanksgiving dinner
to pull the knobs on his police scanner
I watched his wife cry, I watched his kids cry.
He spent all his time looking for a new disaster, yeah

CHORUS
Deeds done will always catch up.
The Devil’s waiting down around the bend
His dirty, creeping soul was rotten.
Now he’s lying down around the bend

Jack and Sue died out old Black Road.
Fucked up and fell asleep at the wheel
With blood in his eye he watched his true love die
and dropped his head back for the big sleep, yeah

Well Dallas was first on the scene.
He couldn’t find nothin’ to shoot so he started gettin’ mean
He had no urge to cry when he looked inside
he just dropped his head back and laughed at the gruesome scene

CHORUS --

It doesn’t take long before everything’s gone.
Pulling a pension and the scanner’s busted.
Here comes the Devil man, here comes the Devil man,
Here comes the Devil man and he’s saying “Boy let’s go home.”

CHORUS --
