[Verse] Boots clank like a hammer on stone Dust clouds rise where his shadow's grown His badge ain't gold but his words cut deep Promises made that no one can keep [Prechorus] He says he's the law But who's keeping score [Chorus] The self-proclaimed sheriff makes order Drawing lines where there's no border His rules ain't written They're just in his head The self-proclaimed sheriff paints the town red [Verse 2] Crows circle where his justice lands Cards fall quick from his loaded hands He claims the truth But it's laced with lies The kind of man you see in the devil's eyes [Prechorus] He says he's the law But who's keeping score [Chorus] The self-proclaimed sheriff makes order Drawing lines where there's no border His rules ain't written They're just in his head The self-proclaimed sheriff paints the town red
