There's riders in this county |
|
They're taking heads for bounty |
|
Wake up Corinne, they come to ride us down |
|
Sweetness we have tasted |
|
The time to move is wasted |
|
They're riding like a hurricane through this town |
|
We've been too many nights sleeping in a feather bed |
|
You can't close both your eyes with a price on your head |
|
You got to stand and fight for what you believe |
|
You got to face death with your heart on your sleeve |
|
Life is a card-game, you've soon got to leave |
|
Living on borrowed, living on borrowed, living on borrowed time |
|
If you say that you want your freedom |
|
They'll hear you in every kingdom |
|
They'll travel ten thousand miles just to shoot you down |
|
Well the judge he was deluded |
|
And the sheriff he soon colluded |
|
And they swore they'd hang me six feet off the ground |
|
They'll hunt you down 'cos you dare to tell the truth |
|
A man ain't safe these days under his own roof |
|
But you can't live your life under no man's thumb |
|
They'll all pay double for what they've done |
|
Our day's coming but their day's come |
|
Living on borrowed, living on borrowed, living on borrowed time |
|
You can't live your life under no man's thumb |
|
They'll all pay double for what they've done |
|
Our day's coming but their day's come |
|
Living on borrowed, living on borrowed, living on borrowed time |
