[Verse] High noon sun hangs heavy over town, Dusty streets, no one makes a sound, He waits for me by the old saloon, Knowing well this’ll be my tomb. [Verse 2] His eyes cold, like a rattler’s stare, Lightning speed, folks stop and stare, Ten paces drawn, my hand too slow, His bullet strikes, my body goes. [Chorus] Now I'm deader, just a name on a stone, The fastest gun left me flesh and bone, The shadow falls where I once stood strong, In this ghost town, where I belong. [Verse 3] My final breath, swallowed by the dust, The iron taste of my mortal rust, Black hat walks away, his boots stark, Leaves me bleeding in the dark. [Bridge] The town whispers of that harrowing day, Where lives are lost and dust decays, A memory carved in bullets thrown, Life of a gunslinger now overthrown. [Verse 4] The wind howls through these hollow streets, No man's land where death greets, My spirit drifts where my blood lay dry, Shot down quick, just to die.
