Lake & Palmer Emerson
Lake & Palmer Emerson - The Sheriff songtekst
Je score:
(emerson - lake) Wicked josie rode away In the sunset covered sky A lynching mob had strung his friend up Right before his eyes He didnt know what theyd both done He sure as hell would end up one A hot tin notch on the sheriffs gun If he didnt move on Get out of here The sheriff followed josies journey >from kansas in the west He said hed put a bullet right Through poor old josies chest But josie wasnt like the rest He dont like bullet holes in his vest In fact hed do his very best Dont want any arrest Dont want to be the guest Of the sheriff The nights got so damned cold He couldnt stand the pace He looked again for sheriffs men But couldnt see the chase Josie found a nice warm place But then the sheriff solved the case Hoped to find josies face And said lookie here... Sheriff rode him into town With josie look inside He didnt know about the six-gun Wicked josie had Then josie drew his gun real fast Gave the sheriff one big blast And josie was a song at last A legend from the past Nobody ever messed with the sheriff
