Lonesome Man
In the heart of the west, if you live by the law of the land
When you wear the badge, they say, you're a lonesome man
I had one eye on the door, and my back against the wall
I could smell the plan, I could hear the call
Just outside, there was madness in the air
Thick black smoke, danger and despair
They had come from far away, desperate and ready to fight
I was the only man who could stop this evil on a moonlit night
There's no stopping this lonesome man tonight
But the wanted men are about to try
You got no friends cause you might not make it till daylight
When you live by the law of the badge, they say you're a lonesome man
When I stepped in to the street, seven men lay could as ice
Killed by the wanted men, I would make them pay the price
Blood, lead, smoking guns, rang throughout the night
When the sun came up and the smoke had cleared
There were two of us left to fight
Big and bad as a man could be, truly a terrible sight
Down by the general store, standing in the morning light
He looked at me with a nasty grin, and a twinkle in his eye he
Said a step right up lawman, you're about to die
There's no stopping this lonesome man tonight
But the wanted men are about to try
You got no friends cause you might not make it till daylight
When you live by the law of the badge, they say you're a lonesome man
The wanted man had said his peace, I would have to make my play
I had to prove I could make the grade, I had to put this dog away
Shots rang out, the bad man fell, I had made my stand
When you die by the hand of a lonesome man
You die by the law of the land
There's no stopping this lonesome man tonight
But the wanted men are about to try
You got no friends cause you might not make it till daylight
When you live by the law of the badge, they say you're a lonesome man
There's no stopping this lonesome man tonight
But the wanted men are about to try
You got no friends cause you might not make it till daylight
When you live by the law of the badge, they say you're a lonesome man
When you live by the law of the badge, they say you're a lonesome man
When you wear the badge, they say, you're a lonesome man
I had one eye on the door, and my back against the wall
I could smell the plan, I could hear the call
Just outside, there was madness in the air
Thick black smoke, danger and despair
They had come from far away, desperate and ready to fight
I was the only man who could stop this evil on a moonlit night
There's no stopping this lonesome man tonight
But the wanted men are about to try
You got no friends cause you might not make it till daylight
When you live by the law of the badge, they say you're a lonesome man
When I stepped in to the street, seven men lay could as ice
Killed by the wanted men, I would make them pay the price
Blood, lead, smoking guns, rang throughout the night
When the sun came up and the smoke had cleared
There were two of us left to fight
Big and bad as a man could be, truly a terrible sight
Down by the general store, standing in the morning light
He looked at me with a nasty grin, and a twinkle in his eye he
Said a step right up lawman, you're about to die
There's no stopping this lonesome man tonight
But the wanted men are about to try
You got no friends cause you might not make it till daylight
When you live by the law of the badge, they say you're a lonesome man
The wanted man had said his peace, I would have to make my play
I had to prove I could make the grade, I had to put this dog away
Shots rang out, the bad man fell, I had made my stand
When you die by the hand of a lonesome man
You die by the law of the land
There's no stopping this lonesome man tonight
But the wanted men are about to try
You got no friends cause you might not make it till daylight
When you live by the law of the badge, they say you're a lonesome man
There's no stopping this lonesome man tonight
But the wanted men are about to try
You got no friends cause you might not make it till daylight
When you live by the law of the badge, they say you're a lonesome man
When you live by the law of the badge, they say you're a lonesome man
