Shotgun blast straight to the chest
Best part hasn't happened yet
Hold him down son
show you what comes next
its time for his final ride
We'll get our pay tonight
Stroll into town
Lay our shotguns down
Sheriff heres the man you seek
Bounties our only fee
its our job to clean these streets
Saddle up son, our work will never be done
Traveling across the west
wanted posters in our vest
No place to call home
no place to rest
Father why do we do these deeds
Make evil beg and bleed
Don't it seem odd
to be just like thieves
Now my son let me tell you this
It ain't odd, its simply bliss
To be the one
With the iron fist
We right across these dusty plains
For blood, money and the fame
now ever man knows our name
Saddle up son, our work will never be done
They had us back against the wall
don't kill my son i'll take the fall,
Please let him go,
Just a boy you know
So run along now, far from here
Don't turn back no matter what you hear
Heart made of stone
Time to take his throne
Now that boys grown oh so high
With a son and his loving wife
Revenge in his sight
Wont forget that night
Come on son and ride with me
Only wish that pa could see
How we made them bleed
Saddle up son, our work will never be done
