"Bullet's Lullaby"
Written by Port Sulphur Band
Publication December 10, 1894

I'll sing you into sleep
You prayed your soul I'd keep
The future's past defied
I am the lullaby

Was gone these four years past
And when that man came back
Those haunted, hollow eyes
He'd heard the lullaby

You'll pay for what you reaped
When I come calling
I am the storm, the eye
I am the lullaby

My friend just close your eyes
And I'll be by your side
Though shots puncture the night
The bullet's lullaby
Come sing the lullaby
