lyrics

I'm sitting in my saddle
hungry and my mouth feels dry
my horse is getting tired
but this is not the place to die.
I go ahead for money
my work here is done
tied behind the horse
hangs a victim of my gun

I hope to see my love again
it's far too long ago.
But first I have to do my job
although I miss her so.
It's been years since I left
thinking about home makes me sigh.
City grows at the horizon
no here's not the place to die.

After all that time
I hope she remembers at all.
My love for her is growing
the more the distance gets tall.
I reach the city in the morning
the price for the body was high.
So I take the money and I take a train
and hope to reach the please
I can die.
