Lyrics

There was a man on a horse
Nobody knew
Where he came from
Or was headed to
Mysterious eyes
No one even could see
The beaming soul
Inside him so carefree
Until he
Chorus: Walked up to the tables
And he laid big money down
Walked up to the bar and said
I?m buyin the boys a round
And he walked up to their ladies
And laid their bodies down
Shot the outlaw in the street
To save a dieing town
A diein' town
There was a man on a horse
One day he rode into town
Turned the ladies heads
For miles around
Shot the man in black
Said your time has come
It?s your pay back
For all the wrong you?ve done
And then he
Chorus:
There was a man on a horse
Nobody knew
Where he came from
Or was headed to
A man or a myth
Well no one can say
They still talk about him
To this very day
Of how he
Chorus:
Well he walked up to the tables
And he laid big money down
He walked up to the bar and said
I?m buyin? the town a round
And walked up to their ladies
And laid their bodies down
Shot the outlaw in the street
To save a dieing town
A diein? town
(Instrumental)
A diein? town
