Ride
Daddy was an outlaw
He rode from town to town
Robbin banks and stagecoaches
He was the meanest man around
He rode a buckskin horse
Carried a forty-five
Twelve proven men were in his gang
To help keep him alive
Daddy ride
Ride
Ride
I didn't know him very well
Sure know what he did
Some even say he was quick as Holiday
And meaner than Billy the Kid
Wanted in thirteen states
Murder in the first degree
He said that he did it for my momma and my sister and for me
Daddy was an outlaw
He rode from town to town
Robbing banks and stagecoaches
Til Bob Ford shot him down
When momma told me he died
I didn't even cry
I just looked up to the sky and said
Ride daddy ride
Daddy ride
Ride
Ride
Well there's six feet of earth
Waiting on a soul
Nobody's ever beat the devil to the draw
What you do between now and then
That's the measure of a man
You can run but you can't hide
Ride
Daddy was an outlaw
Rode from town to town
Robbing banks and stagecoaches
Til Bob Ford shot him down
When momma told me he died
I didn't even cry
I just looked up to the sky and said
Ride daddy ride
Well there's six feet of earth
Waiting on a soul
Nobody's ever beat the devil to the draw
What you do between now and then
That's the measure of a man
You can run
But you can't hide
Ride
You're too young not to survive
Daddy ride
You're too young
not to survive
Daddy ride
Daddy was an outlaw
Rode from town to town
Robbing banks and stagecoaches
He was the meanest man around
