With phony papers

And kentucky flats

You never will understand

8. “Desperado” (1971)

I’m a gambler and I’m a runner but you knew that when you layed down
I’m a picture of ugly stories I’m a killer and I’m a clown
Step into the street by sundown step into your last goodbye
You’re a target just by living twenty dollars will make you die
I wear lace and I wear black leather my hands are lightning upon my gun
My shots are clean and my my shots are final my shots are deadly and when it’s done
You’re as stiff as my smoking barrel you’re as dead as a desert night
You’re a notch and I’m a legend you’re at peace and I must hide
Tell me where the hell I’m going let my bones fall in the dust
Can’t you hear that ghost that’s calling as my colt begins to rust in the dust
I’m a killer I’m a clown I’m a priest that’s gone to town
