[Verse 1] Dust on the trail Horses start to pace A long wagon line Moves into the waste By the cottonwood They circle up and stare But the land goes still Like it knows what’s there [Pre-Chorus] Then the first gun clicks From the canyon side And the warning call Runs low and wide [Chorus] They’re all in too deep (too deep, too deep) They’re all in too deep (each one’s got a streak) Pow wow in the dust Ambush in the heat They’re all in too deep And doomed to meet [Verse 2] Cards on a coach seat Dice in a coat pocket A masked man grins When the wheels go to stop The driver ducks low Reins snap in the air Glass hits the sand And the shot rings bare [Pre-Chorus] One more shout goes up From the ravine line Every plan they made Breaks on time [Chorus] They’re all in too deep (too deep, too deep) They’re all in too deep (each one’s got a streak) Pow wow in the dust Ambush in the heat They’re all in too deep And doomed to meet [Bridge] Smoke rolls over sage Boots stamp the ground Greed and fear collide Till neither one stands proud The wind keeps score The desert knows the truth Every trap they laid Turns right back loose [Final Chorus] They’re all in too deep (too deep, too deep) They’re all in too deep (each one’s got a streak) Pow wow in the dust Ambush in the heat They’re all in too deep And doomed to meet They’re all in too deep (too deep, too deep) They’re all in too deep And doomed to meet
