lyrics

Well I was sitting in the back of a boxcar
heading down the track with a 45
I'm a man on a mission to take on the villain
who went and done took my pride
Had a drink, threw it down
the time is now for me to go and make my day
With the look in his eye bullets started to fly
Not a better way to die today

Oh with my hand on the trigger
Stake couldn't be bigger
Blow him away now blow him away
Lord knows I've been a sinner
Down to the river
Wash me away now
Wash me away

Now the deed was done I was on the run
Hit the saddle from dusk to dawn
Only martial law is going to bring me down
another bullet with my name is gone
Town to town hiding out from the badge
I knew my luck was running dry
Heard my name called out by the man
who was gonna try to take my life

Oh with my hand on the trigger
Pulse getting quicker
Blow him away now blow him away
Lord knows I've been a sinner
Down to the river
Wash me away now
Wash me away

I'm here to stay
I fought the battle

I'm riding off
I've had enough
Into the sun
I'm gone again
