letra de a cowboy's last ride - john t. martin

Loading...

[verse 1]
he was born to a west texas sky
mama worked the mill and daddy worked the mine
daddy was a good man but he liked that corn liquor
one night he met a man whose draw was quicker
the sun rose on a fresh grave, he stood there by his mother
a shovel in the one hand and a gun in the other
the k!ller wore a silver star, the boy found him at the bar
and dropped the hammer on daddy’s revolver
he fled the law from el paso to waco
they ran him south all the way to laredo
he cut a trail to the boarder on a palomino quarter
most of the law never made it to the rio

[chorus]
he wasn’t born a gun fightin’ man
he just played the cards in his hand
many men have tried and many men have died
tryna k!ll the man responsible for many of cowboy’s last ride

[verse 2]
she was born a school teacher’s daughter
she’d been raised right and washed by the water
she found him hidin’ in her backyard leanin’ on the well
a bullet in his leg and a posee on the hill
she hid him in the house when they came around
she nursed him to health and he was never found
they wed in the spring but the word was in the wind
there were holes in his story, tales of past sins
seven months he left his gun hangin’ on the harp
one night he went for wood, they were waitin’ in the dark
when the shots rang out she dropped the kettle to the floor
saw his gun on the mantle and knew he needed no more
[chorus]
she fell in love with a wanted man
she stole his heart and his gun hand
many men have tried and many men have died
but she was the reason for a cowboy’s last ride
he wasn’t born a gun fightin’ man
he just played the cards in his hand
many men have tried and many men have died
tryna k!ll the man responsible for many of cowboy’s last ride

[outro]
the sun rose on a fresh grave, she stood there by his mother
a shovel in one hand and a baby in the other
