Modern Day Cowboy

Stormy night under jet black skies
Billy pulls into town
Thunder rolled and the lightnin' bolts
Come crashin' to the ground

Cold as ice, hard as stone
As he walks into the room
With another man who was feelin' the same way
All hell's breakin' loose

Bang-bang, shoot 'em up
Bang-bang, blow you away

It's a showdown in the no man's land
For the cowboy (cowboy) of the modern day
Come on, sundown, don't be hangin 'round
'Cause the cowboy will blow you away, yeah

Al Capone and Bad Boy Jones
On the wrong side of the law
Johnny D and his company
Always first to the draw

Gangster lean, feelin' so mean
Tryin' to take more than their share
'Cause all they saw was ruling it all
The scent of blood was in the air

Bang-bang, shoot 'em up
Bang-bang, blow you away

It's a showdown in the no man's land
For a cowboy (cowboy) of the modern day
Come on, sundown, don't be hangin' 'round
'Cause the cowboy (cowboy) will blow you away

So here we are and we've come this far
But it's only getting worse
The foreign lands with their terrorist demands
Only cause the good to hurt

The U.S.A., the U.S.S.R.
With their six guns to their sides
I see the message written on the wall
Too much anger deep inside

Bang-bang, I'll shoot 'em up
Bang-bang, blow you away

It's a showdown in the no man's land
For the cowboy (cowboy) of the modern day
Come on, sundown, don't be hangin' 'round
'Cause the cowboy (cowboy) will blow you away

It's a showdown
