lyrics

Well I hear there's money
To be made out west
I've packed by bags
And double checked my list
One check for shoes the other for some gold

Well I'm just a vagrant now
A passerby
I made a stop in a town
Cause I was short on supply
Well the shop owner had a few words to say to me

He said
If you're headed out west son
The wells run dry and the gold is gone
And if you plan on sticking around
For long
For long
Well I hope you're pretty good with a gun

Well in this small town
There's one saloon
The sun hangs the highest
When it's ten paces past noon
Well all the good girls and boys know what to do

I was on my way
When I heard a shout
Two men tumbled out the bar
Another man yelled look out
He's another one of them gold chasing fools

He said
If you're headed out west son
The wells run dry and the gold is gone
And if you plan on sticking around
For long
For long
Well I hope you're pretty good with a gun

Well three months later
I made it to the coast
No money in my pocket
But I'm standing on gold
I killed for this land
Blood on my hands
I guess they found out
I'm pretty good with a gun

But now I'm on the run
I follow the morning sun
Got gold and moved on
So I guess this is so long

Oh and if you're headed out west son
The wells run dry and I'm long gone
I made my fortune with a loaded gun
And escaped with the setting sun
