They sent me out from Santa Fe to try and find his trail They think that I'm the only one who can bring him back to jail This star says I'm a lawman this gun has seen me through And though my heart is heavy I've got a job to do You see he's such a proud man who never learned to crawl But a good man turns gun slinger he's the meanest man of all He killed the US Marshall and for that he's gonna pay And I'm the lonely lawman who's on his trail today [ guitar ] There was a time he fought for true and on the side of right Until the only girl he loved was killed one faithful night I know his heart was shattered as he turned the barren sod And laid away her body come ending into God Then he vowed a revenge to those who took her life And every notch upon his gun a tear shed for his wife But revenge is like wild fire sweepin' through the wood It turns reason into ashes and it burns out on the good Now I can't help but remember as I trail this lonesome man I don't believe while we were boys out of any race we ran For you see his face resembles mine we talk somewhat the same And though we walk in differend world we both wear our daddy's nameTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
