Lirieke: Lita Ford. Stiletto. Aces and Eights.

We only take what we need
In black and white the city bleeds
Love cuts you down to the bone
And walks these streets
With the eyes of a hunter

Bad blood flows from
The father to the son
How red the river runs, yeah

Love was the law
For sinners and saints
Dead man's hand holds
Aces & eights

We're bound by wire, blood and fate
Hanging on to nothing
Aces & eights

We let each other bleed
And watch our bones fall in the dust
You can hear the children howl
It's all they see in the hour of the wolf

Bad blood flows from
The father to the son
How red the river runs, yeah

Love was the law
For sinners and saints
The dead man's hand holds
Aces & eights

We're bound by wire, blood and fate
Hanging on to nothing
Love was the law, sinners and saints

Dead man's hand holds, aces & eights
We're bound by wire, blood and fate
Hanging on to nothing, hey, aces & eights

Daytime, nighttime
Standing in line at the border
I wanna lay down the law
I wanna tell 'em how it should be

Bad blood flows from
The father to the son
How red the river runs, yeah

Love was the law, love was the law
For sinners and saints
The dead man's hand holds aces & eights

We're bound by wire, blood and fate
Hanging on to nothing
Love was the law for sinners and saints

The dead man's hand holds aces & eights
We're bound by wire, blood and fate
Hanging on to nothing

Aces & eights, hey, aces & eights
Hey, aces & eights
Uw, yeah, aces & eights, aces & eights
