Just grab a horse
I'll go get mine
Not much that's left to do
But just get on and ride
And somebody's coming
And we haven't much time
It's such a bloody mess
But what was I to do
It's true he was a friend of mine
But he wouldn't let go of you
And jealousy's a poison
As we ride I cry
So much trouble, for me and you
So much trouble, but it's almost through
Long as I remember, it's always been this way
Just when I get a foot on the ground
It ends up next to a grave
And yes there's a poster
A dollar sign and my face
Now I'm burning up the leather
Another man shot down
But just as long as it's not me
I'll find another town
And I don't mind the running
I just hope not too late
Someone's coming, for me and you
But ride hard and we might get through
The hiss and a whine
And an ugly slap
I know a bullet's got my name
But thirteen steps and a hanging tree's
Not gonna be my fate
Ride hard
It was all for the love of you dear
I swore I'd try and change
But I warned you once
I'm a jealous man
And it's a part of myself I hate
But ride hard
And we might get through
Ride hard me and you
Ride hard
