Sun’s a-blazin’down on the desert floorBoots caked in mud and my revolver’s rawRode that bronco till my bones screamed “fuck off”Lost my last damn dollar on a no-good tossSaloon doors creak where the whiskey flows thickBartender’s glarin’like I ain’t paid my trickGot a scar on my cheek from a knife fight brawlThis old town’s breathin’with a drawlin’snarl
Wind’s howlin’tales of the ones we left deadSaddle’s my pillow the stars my damn bedNo law’s gonna chain me no preacher’s gonna saveI’m just a ghost ridin’this wild wild wave I’m a cowboy dirt under my nailsGot a fist full of fury and a heart full of failsWhiskey in my veins and a middle finger raisedTo the pricks who think they can dig me my graveDust in my eyes sun burnin’my soulI’ll ride till my horse and my body both foldAin’t no heaven ain’t no hell worth the waitJust me my six-shooter and this godforsaken fate
Found a girl in a dress with a rebel’s grinShe stole my damn horse and she stole my last ginSaid “Boy you’re a fool if you think you’re tough”Then she kissed me hard and she called my bluffSheriff’s posse chasin’my trail like a curseI shot out the lanterns and I rode for the hearseLeft ’em coughin’dust in the dead of the nightFuck their badges—ain’t worth the shine in the light
Wind’s howlin’tales of the ones we left deadSaddle’s my pillow the stars my damn bedNo law’s gonna chain me no preacher’s gonna saveI’m just a ghost ridin’this wild wild wave I’m a cowboy dirt under my nailsGot a fist full of fury and a heart full of failsWhiskey in my veins and a middle finger raisedTo the pricks who think they can dig me my graveDust in my eyes sun burnin’my soulI’ll ride till my horse and my body both foldAin’t no heaven ain’t no hell worth the waitJust me my six-shooter and this godforsaken fate
My horse went down at the edge of the passI buried him deep with a shot of cheap grassPulled my revolver checked the last two roundsOne for the devil one for the clownsWho think they can tame this unbroken beastI’ll spit on their graves when they’re finally deceasedThe desert’s my judge the cactus my juryI’ll die with my boots on—ain’t no damn worry
Sun’s sinkin’low and the moon’s comin’upI’m takin’one last sip from this whiskey cupDust in my lungs and a fire in my chestFuck the world—I did it my bestYeehaw…
