We can share the women, We can share the wine
|
We can share what we got of yours 'cause we done shared all of mine
|
Keep on rolling, Just a mile to go
|
Keep on rolling, my old buddy you're moving much too slow
|
|
I just jumped the watch man right outside the fence
|
Took his ring, four bucks in change, ain't that heaven-sent?
|
Hurts my ears to listen, burns my eyes to see
|
Cut down a man in cold blood, Shannon, might as well be me
|
|
We used to play for silver now we play for life
|
One's for sport and one's for blood at the point of a knife
|
Now the die is shaken, Now the die must fall
|
There ain't a winner in the game you don't go home with all… Not with all…
|
|
Leaving Texas fourth day of July
|
Sun so hot, clouds so low the eagles filled the sky
|
Catch the Detroit Lightning out of Santa Fe
|
Great Northern out of Cheyenne from sea to shining sea
|
|
Gotta get to Tulsa first train we can ride
|
Got to settle one old score one small point of pride
|
Ain't no place a man can hide, Shannon, we'll keep you from the sun
|
Ain't no bed will give us rest, man, you keep us on the run
|
|
Jack Straw from Wichita cut his buddy down
|
Dug for him a shallow grave and laid his body down
|
Half a mile from Tucson by the morning light
|
One man gone and another to go my old buddy you're moving much too slow….
|
|
We can share the women, we can share the wine…
