Madison Nicol - Magnolia Lyrics

I killed a man when I was nine years old
He'd found the ranch and all the horses we'd stole
While he bled out I knelt and said a prayer
Life could only go downhill from there

We took off riding towards Arkansas
Where the women don't mind a boy running from the law
I was set to duel when one gal caught my eye
I told her we'd marry once this man had died

Oh Magnolia, don't you weep for me
I've been running my whole life, it's about time I got some sleep
Oh Magnolia, don't you weep for me
Maybe one day I'll see you in my dreams

He drew his gun before she counted to three
Emptied his whole barrel and made a fool out of me
I laid there dying while she just shook her head
She smiled and said I'd be better off dead

Oh Magnolia, don't you weep for me
I've been running my whole life, it's about time I got some sleep
Oh Magnolia, don't you weep for me
Maybe one day I'll see you in my dreams

Oh Magnolia, don't you weep for me
I've been running my whole life, it's about time I got some sleep
Oh Magnolia, don't you weep for me
Maybe one day I'll see you in my dreams
