Flashback .. Fast Forward

We Were Shooting Out The Four Way Redlight Again

needless to say I was defeated

thoughts rushed through my mind

I had to pull myself together

get the hell out of winnie .. fast

sleeping wasn't safe anymore

planned to stay one last weekend

i'd given my word to grandma eva

her coonass boyfriend vernon

that i'd help them move in

so there I was stuck once again

and alline .. she'd been going on

about us choosing a house together

during the same time her dad

had threatened to kill me

also donald and the two ex-cons

seems I was hated more now

than i've ever been hated before

all over, simply one girl .. alline

I didn't know how to tell her

yet I had to figure out a way

God knows she cried .. carried on every day

I related i'd drank a beer or two with her dad

she was curious .. told her we'd only said hi

perplexed about that .. then I related to her

frenchman, kilo and I would rent a place

kissed her tears away .. she smiled

they'd decided to move to winnie

west monroe was just way too hot

after the big bust everyone left town

living adjustments had to be made 

winnie is a very different kind of town

world of difference between winnie and west monroe

louisiana .. texas .. kilo and frenchman fit right in

they loved the fact there were no police

especially after all we'd recently gone through

only thing was .. oil boom town, no available women

plan was set .. kilo, frenchman and I got together

rented a place from my uncle earl and aunt yvonne

dennis was highly pissed I was moving out

I related to him I couldn't take anymore

of his fighting with his fiancee and girlfriends

he insisted we paint the town this weekend

hesitantly I agreed .. same old pattern

we began at kingsman country bar

dennis was drunk .. a twelve pack later

we were shooting out the four way redlight again
