I Dare You

I'm not hiding in my room
Im going to take that warrant off you
so the police don't have to handle my feud 
i have my rifle and my 42 I dare you

I dare you to come around
and knock me down on my face
your such a disgrace to the human race
I dare you

I dare you to try to hurt me again
with those fists and those words 
I'm not scared no more 
so try to swing this way
you wont see another day

I dare you to try to come back to this town
i got my rifle and my 42 and a couple men who
would love to beat you
i dare you

i was scared and terrified that you would see me again
and i wouldn't be so lucky to get a hold of my friends 
to help me defend the man who could take my life but
I dare you

I got my rifle and my 42
i dare you to try to swing this way
you wont see another day
i dare you
