At last the outlaw's dead
|
This is the first of our goodbyes
|
The bells they toll for me
|
My blood or his on this dirty street
|
My God my hands don't fail me now
|
The devil's tool to do God's will
|
The women cry the men are still
|
His silhouette up on the hill
|
|
Hush baby don't you cry for me
|
We men are the last of a dying breed
|
An empty flask, a cloud of dust
|
A muzzle flash, a crowd now hushed
|
BANG BANG he shot me dead
|
BANG BANG a bullet through his head
|
Oh no I killed my friend
|
Gun fight such a bitter end
|
Now dead man's hill
|
Claims two more souls tonight
|
|
At ten paces BANG BANG he shot me dead
|
At ten paces gun fights such a bitter end
|
|
Now the city sleeps tonight
|
I hear the widow's crying out
|
All alone in their beds
|
Oh no what have I done
|
Oh no what have I done
|
Three small simple words to say
|
Grown men are taught not to cry
|
But cowboys do have to die
|
Just one life to give
|
So that we both might live
|
