"Hang 'Em High"

Wait until it fades to black

Ride into the sunset

Would I lie to you?

Well I've got something to say

Grab your six-gun from your back

Throttle the ignition

Would I die for you?

Well here's your answer in spades

Shotgun sinners, wild-eyed jokers

Got you in my sights

Gun it while I'm holding on

After all is said and done

Climb out from the pine box

Well I'm asking you

'Cause she's got nothing to say

The angels just cut out her tongue

Call her Black Mariah

Would I lie to you?

That girl's not right in the brain

Mass convulsions

Strike the choir

By the grace of God

Gun it while I'm holding on

But, don't stop

If I fall

And don't look back

Oh baby, don't stop

Bury me and fade to black

She won't stop me, put it down

She won't stop me, put it down

She won't stop me, put it down

So get your gun and meet me by the door

She won't stop me, put it down

She won't stop me, put it down

She won't stop me, put it down

So get your gun and meet me by the door

She won't stop me, put it down

She won't stop me, put it down

She won't stop me, put it down

So get your gun and meet me by the door

She won't stop me, put it down

She won't stop me, put it down

She won't stop me, put it down

So baby

Don't stop

If I fall

And don't look back

Oh baby, don't stop

Bury me and fade to black

Don't stop

If I fall

And don't look back

Oh baby, don't stop

Bury me and fade to black
