| [00:33.42] |
Big tall man standing in the street |
| [00:36.93] |
Gun hanging by his side |
| [00:40.44] |
Just one man that he'd like to meet |
| [00:43.65] |
That's when I began to hide |
| [00:47.16] |
I recognised him from the face of his son |
| [00:50.58] |
The hate in his eye didn't lie |
| [00:53.25] |
Oh what I did can't be undone |
| [00:57.60] |
Borrowed time there's none to buy |
| [00:59.01] |
Well I hid round the back of a derelict shack |
| [01:06.39] |
Ain't looking for a mad showdown |
| [01:09.81] |
But he was smart, he'd already checked |
| [01:13.35] |
A week in advance I'd paid down |
| [01:16.29] |
Well the hotel clerk was a fun-loving man |
| [01:20.25] |
The job he had it didn't pay |
| [01:23.94] |
He told all about what happened that night |
| [01:26.82] |
There he is, that's the one's all he'd say |
| [01:31.11] |
Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping |
| [01:36.06] |
on my bad neighbours doors |
| [01:37.65] |
crying Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly |
| [01:43.08] |
Let me in I gotta hide |
| [01:46.47] |
Well everybody was crying, sighing Sam McGee's dying |
| [01:50.10] |
No one to protect our town |
| [01:53.58] |
Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly, |
| [01:56.97] |
he's gonna shoot your sherriff down |
| [02:34.74] |
Big tall man standing in the street |
| [02:37.38] |
now a hand hovering waiting to slide |
| [02:41.73] |
Drew out his gun it wasn't for fun |
| [02:44.67] |
Let me in there's nowhere to hide |
| [02:48.18] |
Well I made my play but it wasn't my day |
| [02:52.17] |
I felt the ripping lead |
| [02:55.41] |
That's when I knew my time was through |
| [02:58.26] |
Rest in peace were the last words he said |
| [03:02.49] |
Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping |
| [03:07.08] |
on my bad neighbours doors |
| [03:08.97] |
crying Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly |
| [03:14.28] |
Let me in I gotta hide |
| [03:16.29] |
Well everybody was crying, sighing Sam McGee's dying |
| [03:21.15] |
No one to protect our town |
| [03:24.60] |
Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly, |
| [03:27.90] |
he's gonna shoot your sherriff down |
| [03:29.73] |
Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping |
| [03:36.30] |
on my bad neighbours doors |
| [03:36.81] |
crying Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly |
| [03:38.40] |
Let me in I gotta hide |
| [03:38.85] |
Well everybody was crying, sighing Sam McGee's dying |
| [03:40.02] |
No one to protect our town |
| [03:40.68] |
Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly, |
| [03:42.12] |
he's gonna shoot your sherriff down |
