Lyrics

VERSE
Called It an accident
A grim night in the Lou
Grandbaby on Quincy street
Playing in my view

She learned to ride
To my great pride
She climbed a tree
And Sang for me

CHORUS
Cold Steel Blues
Evil Hands
That you excuse

VERSE
05 a light is born
The yoke is tossed about
Proceed the public scorn
Our honor placed in doubt

Fight of the day
Post the score in public lore

CHORUS
Cold Steel Blues
Evil Hands
That you excuse

VERSE
Swore an oath on evil blood
Avenge the brotherhood
Cost be dammed scales be flat
Angels of the good

Let the steel fly
Care not who will cry

CHORUS
Cold Steel Blues
Evil Hands
That you excuse

Bridge
15 in the dawn of life
Full of dreams
Free from strife

Pa Pa’s pride, My baby girl
Laid to rest
The perfect pearl

GUITAR LEAD

VERSE
15 Days and lost in time
The rose has lost its pedals
Pain and sorrow of this crime
My heart will never settle

The gun is blamed
Outcome still the same

CHORUS
Cold Steel Blues
Evil Hands
That you excuse

VERSE
Wash your hands and tell me lies
Another diamond on your chain
From the one that never cries
Hollow promises again

Chanted slogans Echo out
An angel’s life Used for doubt

CHORUS
Cold Steel Blues
Evil Hands
That you excuse
