lyrics

Rode my stallion back to town,
On account of you being 'round,
And I reckon' that I have no place to stay.

Cause I shot down Big Money,
Outside the billiards room.
He robbed me of my ransom,
Damn near robbed me of you.

So saddle up your pony man,
'Till the sunset we will ride.
Through South Dakota, Idaho,
Chase the frontier sky.

'Cause if I cross through Big Bourbon's lines,
To face the Sheriff's men,
I'll never see, Pacific tide,
I'll never see you again.

But I can't die a coward.
Worse than Money dyin' a theif,
You may be in danger
before I trot in down the street.

The bullets they will fly
Kill every man that moves,
On my way, through the town,
I came back to for you.

But don't you look outside the window,
Don't you peak around the saloon.
You've seen enough blood,
Don't want what I've been through.

I shot them full of lead,
Watched their eyes bleed through,
Come from far and wide,
And now I'm facing death for you
