Riding through the desert on a very old horse

A few hours ago, I lost the right course

I don't know where I'm going and I don't know where I'm at

Just riding through the desert on a very old horse



A few days ago, I got kicked out of a town

All I ever did, was joke and shoot around

The sheriff told me 'Son, you better choose :

Leave this town now or get your head stuck in a knoose'



It's really hot and the sun keeps beating down

Far on the horizon I can see another town

I'm very thirsty and I do really think

That I'll die very soon, if I don't get a drink



Drying out and they're vultures overhead

They expect me to pass out, and drop dead

I won't give them the pleasure, the city isn't far

In ten minutes from now, I'll be standing at the bar
