Lyrics
Intro
spokenTwo brothers on the runA pastor and his kidsOne hell of a wrong turn
Verse 1
Seth and Richie Gecko left a liquor store in flamesTexas Ranger dead, blood already on their namesNeeded hostages to cross the line into MexicoFound a preacher and his children, made them drive the load
Verse 2
Border behind them, desert road aheadThey pulled into a bar called the Titty Twister after darkBikers, truckers, dancers, whiskey on the shelfNobody knew the real owners only came out after twelve
Chorus
From dusk till dawnThe night turned teeth and clawsFrom dusk till dawnWhat walked in human walked out wrongBrothers, preacher, kids against the darkTrying to live until the morning lightFrom dusk till dawnHell had a cover charge
Verse 3
Santánico came down that stage like a dreamThen the smile split wide and the nightmare started screamingRichie never saw the next sunriseSeth kept shooting while the whole bar came alive
Verse 4
Holy water, crosses, broken chair legs for stakesThey fought through the blood and the bodies and the batsSome turned, some fell, some prayed between the roundsOnly a few were still standing when the first light cracked the clouds
Chorus
From dusk till dawnThe night turned teeth and clawsFrom dusk till dawnWhat walked in human walked out wrongBrothers, preacher, kids against the darkTrying to live until the morning lightFrom dusk till dawnHell had a cover charge
Bridge
They came for a hideoutFound a nest insteadSome sins you run fromSome walk through the door with a smile
Chorus
From dusk till dawnThe night turned teeth and clawsFrom dusk till dawnWhat walked in human walked out wrongBrothers, preacher, kids against the darkTrying to live until the morning lightFrom dusk till dawnHell had a cover charge
Outro
spokenSunrise cameNot everybody got to see it
