|
Stormy night under dead black skies, Billy pulls into town |
|
Thunder rolls and the lightning bolts come crashin' to the ground |
|
Cold as ice, hard as stone, as he walks into the room |
|
With another man who was feeling the same way, all hell is breakin' loose |
|
Chorus: |
|
I said bang bang, shoot 'em all, I said bang bang, blow you away |
|
It's a showdown in the no man's land, for the cowboy of the modern day |
|
Come sundown, don't be hangin' round, 'cos the cowboy'll blow you away |
|
Al Capone and Bad Boy Jones, on the wrong side of the law |
|
Johnny and his company, always fast to the draw, yeah |
|
Get so lean, feelin' so mean, I try to take my lucky share |
|
'Cos all I saw was ruin, oh, the smell of blood was in the air |
|
(chorus) |
|
(Solo) |
|
Ole! |
|
So here we are and we've come this far, but it's only getting worse |
|
Foreign lands with their [terrace] demands, only cost, they get hurt |
|
The U.S.A., the U.S.S.R., wearin' six-guns to the side |
|
I see the message, it's written on the wall, to my chain-gun deep inside |
|
(chorus) |
|
It's a showdown, yeah yeah yeah, ohh |
|
