Fastest Gun Alive Songtext
Thunder in the canyon
Up a two-track road
The kind that I been down a couple times before
Late in the spring
Just below the timberline
I got stoned on a bottle of bluebird wine
Down on the creek
Where the crystal water flows
Up a two-track road
The kind that I been down a couple times before
Late in the spring
Just below the timberline
I got stoned on a bottle of bluebird wine
Down on the creek
Where the crystal water flows
I thought I saw my life in the melting snow
Then I fell asleep
From the sun of a midday heat
And dreamt about the title I had won
Never been to heaven
But I've had one foot in Hell
Spent my share of nights in the county jail
They weren't too far behind me
Coming up ahead
Was the memory of the sweetest thing she said
Down on the creek
Where the crystal water flows
I thought I saw my life in the melting snow
Then I fell asleep
From the sun of a midday heat
Dreamt about the title I had won
Fastest gun alive
I've been wanted all of my life
I can't change these things I've done
Please forgive my tears in the sun
Raining on the mesa
But I can see the sky
And the mountains that won't tell me the reason why
Down on the creek
Where the crystal water flows
I thought I saw my life in the melting snow
Then I fell asleep
From the sun of a midday heat
And dreamt about the title I had won
Fastest gun alive
I've been wanted all of my life
I can't change these things I've done
Please forgive my tears in the sun
Lord, forgive my tears in the sun
Then I fell asleep
From the sun of a midday heat
And dreamt about the title I had won
Never been to heaven
But I've had one foot in Hell
Spent my share of nights in the county jail
They weren't too far behind me
Coming up ahead
Was the memory of the sweetest thing she said
Down on the creek
Where the crystal water flows
I thought I saw my life in the melting snow
Then I fell asleep
From the sun of a midday heat
Dreamt about the title I had won
Fastest gun alive
I've been wanted all of my life
I can't change these things I've done
Please forgive my tears in the sun
Raining on the mesa
But I can see the sky
And the mountains that won't tell me the reason why
Down on the creek
Where the crystal water flows
I thought I saw my life in the melting snow
Then I fell asleep
From the sun of a midday heat
And dreamt about the title I had won
Fastest gun alive
I've been wanted all of my life
I can't change these things I've done
Please forgive my tears in the sun
Lord, forgive my tears in the sun
