Lyrics

Out of the winter came a war horse of steel
I've never killed a woman before, but I know how it feels

*Chorus*:
I know you'd have gone insane if you saw what I saw
So now I've got to look for sanctuary from the law
So give me sanctuary from the law and I'll be alright
Just give me sanctuary from the law and love me tonight, tonight

I met up with a 'slinger last night to keep me alive
He spends all his money on gambling and guns to survive

*Chorus*

I can laugh at the wind, I can howl at the rain
Down in the canyon or out in the plain

*Chorus*
