I pulled out my Stage Coach Times
|
And I read the latest news
|
I tapped my feet in dumb surprise
|
And of course I saw they knew
|
The Pinkertons pulled out my bags
|
And asked me for my name
|
I stuttered out my answer
|
And hung my head in shame
|
|
Now they've found me
|
At last they've found me
|
It's hard to run
|
From a starving family
|
Now they've found me
|
Well I won't run
|
I'm tired of hearing
|
There goes a well-known gun
|
|
Now I've seen this chain gang
|
Lord I say let me see my priest
|
I couldn't have faced your desert sand
|
Old burning brown backed beast
|
The poor house they hit me for my kin
|
And claimed my crumbling walls
|
Now I know how Reno felt
|
When he ran from the law
|
|
Now they've found me
|
At last they've found me
|
It's hard to run
|
From a starving family
|
Now they've found me
|
Well I won't run
|
I'm tired of hearing
|
There goes a well-known gun
|
|
Now they've found me
|
Lord I say at last they've found me
|
It's hard to run
|
From a starving family
|
Lord I say now they've found me
|
Well I won't run
|
I'm tired of hearing
|
There goes a well-known gun
|
|
Lord I say now they've found me
|
At last they've found me
|
It's hard to run
|
From a starving family
|
Now they've found me
|
I won't run
|
I'm tired of hearing
|
There goes a well-known gun
|
