Stray Bullit Woman
Greenleaf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Discharged from blocks away
And nothing like this
Has ever happend before
Stray bullit killed a man today
No enemies but his woman
A spot a bit away
He had been livin'
Today as they say
Stray bullit killed a man today
No enemies but his woman
Let's gather the parish and save for a pray
From these lyrics, it appears that the song is about a man who has been killed by a stray bullet that was discharged from a distance away. This event seems to be unusual and unexpected, as the lyrics suggest that "nothing like this has ever happened before." The victim of the bullet appears to have been a man with no enemies other than his own woman. The lyrics suggest that if the man had been standing just a little bit away from his current position, he would still be alive.
