lyrics

Everywhere I look
The desert stretches on.
Nowhere to hide.
Nowhere to run.
The posse on my tail
Is taking their sweet time.
And I know it...
Gone is my time to shine.

Revolver on my hip-
Scorched leather on my head-
They want me alive.
But they'll also take me dead.
They want me alive.
But they'll also take me dead-
Woah

Nothing to do
But keep marching on
My home is a dream now.
It's passed away and gone.
The only sound I hear
'sides the hooves if this here horse
Is that stolen tequila...
In my saddle bag of course.

Revolver on my hip-
Scorched leather on my head-
They want me alive.
But they'll also take me dead.
They want me alive.
But they'll also take me dead-
Woah
