[03:41.76][00:38.73] |
Early one morning |
[03:44.98][00:41.28] |
With time to kill |
[00:44.14] |
I borrowed Jeb's rifle |
[00:46.76] |
And sat on the hill |
[00:49.47] |
I saw a lone rider |
[04:01.32][00:52.14] |
Crossing the plain |
[00:54.83] |
I drew a bead on him |
[00:57.51] |
To practice my aim |
[01:27.35][01:00.62] |
My brother's rifle |
[01:03.03] |
Went off in my hand |
[01:05.80] |
A shot rang out |
[01:08.43] |
Across the land |
[01:11.08] |
The horse he kept running |
[01:13.75] |
The rider was dead |
[05:00.58][04:58.06][04:55.25][04:52.56][04:49.99][04:47.25][04:44.42][04:41.56][04:38.93][04:36.27][04:33.65][04:30.77][04:28.21][04:25.57][04:22.77][04:20.18][03:17.88][03:15.11][03:12.42][03:09.72][02:07.74][02:04.92][02:02.38][01:59.64][01:19.13][01:16.45] |
I hung my head |
[01:22.40] |
I set off running |
[01:24.63] |
To wake from the dream |
[01:30.03] |
Went into the stream |
[01:32.66] |
I kept on running |
[01:35.42] |
Into the salt lands |
[01:38.08] |
And that's where they found me |
[01:40.75] |
My head in my hands |
[01:43.80] |
The sheriff he asked me |
[01:46.33] |
Why had I run |
[01:48.97] |
Then it came to me |
[01:51.75] |
Just what I had done |
[01:54.33] |
And all for no reason |
[01:56.77] |
Just one piece of lead |
[02:32.36] |
Here in the courthouse |
[02:34.70] |
The whole town is there |
[02:37.44] |
I see the judge |
[02:39.98] |
High up in his chair |
[02:42.84] |
"Explain to the courtroom |
[02:45.54] |
What went through your mind |
[02:48.19] |
And we'll ask the jury |
[02:50.90] |
What verdict they find" |
[02:54.01] |
I said "I felt the power |
[02:56.37] |
Of death over life |
[02:59.13] |
I orphaned his children |
[03:01.82] |
I widowed his wife |
[03:04.45] |
I beg their forgiveness |
[03:07.04] |
I wish I was dead" |
[03:47.92] |
I see the gallows |
[03:50.46] |
Up on the hill |
[03:53.13] |
And out in the distance |
[03:55.91] |
A trick of the brain |
[03:58.54] |
I see a lone rider |
[04:04.10] |
He's come to fetch me |
[04:06.67] |
To see what they done |
[04:09.32] |
We'll ride together |
[04:12.00] |
'Til kingdom come |
[04:14.68] |
I pray for God's mercy |
[04:17.56] |
For soon I'll be dead |
