Me & Nikolai letra

Me and a
Friend of mine, friend of mine, friend of mine
Were riding through the rain
Sizing up our circumstances
Looking for the dame

Nikolai, Nikolai, Nikolai
Was a young hot-headed man
One eye left of center
And a pistol in his hand

And we saw her standing there
She was in her underwear

Is it greed, or is it mercy
Which will guide our hearts tonight?

Well, Madeline, Madeline, Madeline
Fell right into our trap
We'll dress up like two women
And we'll take her off the map

And we saw her standing there
She was in her underwear

Is it greed or is it mercy
Which will guide our hearts tonight?

Oh, I left my lady from New Orleans
Do words describe her, my beauty queen?
Desperate measures for my Annabelle
Money for doctors to make her well

Didn't try didn't try didn't try
To shoot her in the back!
Niki lost his footing
And his gun fell with a crack

Annabelle, Annabelle, Annabelle
Please do not despise me!
I pulled back on that hammer
And then I closed my eyes

And we saw her standing there
She was in her underwear

Is it greed, is it mercy
Which will guide our hearts tonight?

I left my lady from New Orleans
Do words describe her, my beauty queen?
Desperate measures for my Annabelle
Money for doctors to make her well
