Letra
[Verse 1]
Some people get a cheap laugh breakin' up the speed limit
Scarin' the pedestrians for a minute
Crossin' up progress, drivin' on the grass
Leavin' just enough for room to pass
Sunday driver never took a test, whoa, yeah
Once upon a time in the west
[Verse 2]
Yes, and it's no use sayin' that you don't know nothin'
It's still gonna get you, if you don't do somethin'
Sitting on a fence, that's a dangerous course
Oh, you could even catch a bullet from the peace-keepin' force
Even a hero gets a bullet in the chest
Oh, yeah, once upon a time in the west
[Verse 3]
Mama Mary, your children are slaughtered
Some of you mothers ought to lock up your daughters
Who's protectin' the innocenti?
Now heap big trouble in the land of plenty
Tell me how we're gonna do what's best
You guess, once upon a time in the west
[Verse 4]
Oh, yeah, once upon a time in the west
Oh, yeah, once upon a time in the west
Oh, yeah, once upon a time in the west
[Verse 5]
Once upon a time (Once upon a time in the west)
(Once upon a time in the west)
(Once upon a time in the west)
(Once upon a time in the west)
Once upon a time in the west
(Once upon a time in the west)
(Once upon a time in the west)
(Once upon a time in the west)
(Once upon a time in the west)
(Once upon a time in the west)
(Once upon a time in the west)
