Lyrics

C Csus4 C Csus4
Well the men lined up when they heard about Cowboy Sam
So when he came riding in to see his Mary, he had a plan

Am Fmaj7
He'd seen it all before
All their bodies would litter the floor

He said, "Every morning I'll take on just one man
Trying to prove himself by killing dreaded Cowboy Sam.

I just want to warn you all
Each of you will surely fall"

He got no pleasure from killing all those boys
But he knew they'd want a fight, so he really had no choice

So everyday Sam shot a poor boy down
While the undertaker dug their graves down in the ground
