The first CwRoad song written about the gentleman bandit Bill Miner. Takes place in the late 1800's when Bill returned to his home town in Michigan after robbing a stage coach line three times in three weeks.

lyrics

Please Don't Hate Me//
by Charles Wesley and Patrick Spencer

Please don’t hate me if I end up leaving
Cause I don’t believe in forever
I’ll be back to see your smiling face,
And that beauty I’ll take it wherever I go

I swear to the truth as I stand here explaining
just how much I wish I could stay
The part I’m ashamed is my reasons for leaving
are not necessarily how I explained

The last man to stand in a broken down family
now it is my time to chose
To lay the guns down in this Michigan town (and return to the town)
and carve out a family with you

Please don’t hate me if I end up leaving
Cause I don’t believe in forever
I’ll be back to see your smiling face
And that beauty I’ll take it wherever I go

I have been lying my Mother is fine
I’m not taking her on a cruise
I don’t have a fortune in North California
The money’s run out, I’ve got nothing to lose

I rode into town at the top of the chain
flush with the cash from the Sanderson Stage
we stopping it three times in just twenty one days
then I called it quits and we parted ways
with enough gold that I could go back to that place
ask for his daughter and give her my name
but there’s only so long that I can keep faking
the saddle is calling, my rifle is waiting

Please don’t hate me if I end up leaving
Cause I don’t believe in forever
I’ll be back to see your smiling face
And that beauty I’ll take it wherever I go
