High Noon
With contrite hearts on the blackest of days
We've done our deeds but now we have to pay
The social call, the president's not home
The gossip line, we never would have known
I awoke to the sound of singing in the streets
I awoke to the sound of singing in the streets
The sorrow fell like the setting sun on dusty streets
The sound of running in our heads
As we hung like leaves from the trees
Shooting from the hip we live our lives so precariously
Breathing deeply for the last time
I can see the lights shining just for me
Built to last
The winter's going to end
The sun will shine on our faces
Life begins
Swing low, sweet chariot
Carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Carry me home
Ride till sunset leave it all behind and...
Ride till sunset leave it all behind and go
Cowboys never die
Cowboys never die
Cowboys never die
Cowboys never die
Built to last
The winter's going to end
The sun will shine on our faces
Life begins
When life ends, life begins
When life ends, life begins
Again and again
We've done our deeds but now we have to pay
The social call, the president's not home
The gossip line, we never would have known
I awoke to the sound of singing in the streets
I awoke to the sound of singing in the streets
The sorrow fell like the setting sun on dusty streets
The sound of running in our heads
As we hung like leaves from the trees
Shooting from the hip we live our lives so precariously
Breathing deeply for the last time
I can see the lights shining just for me
Built to last
The winter's going to end
The sun will shine on our faces
Life begins
Swing low, sweet chariot
Carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Carry me home
Ride till sunset leave it all behind and...
Ride till sunset leave it all behind and go
Cowboys never die
Cowboys never die
Cowboys never die
Cowboys never die
Built to last
The winter's going to end
The sun will shine on our faces
Life begins
When life ends, life begins
When life ends, life begins
Again and again
