Tekst Utworu

[Verse 1]
We can share the women, we can share the wine
We can share what we got of yours 'cause we done shared all of mine
Keep on rollin', just a mile to go
Keep on rollin', my old buddy, you're movin' much too slow
[Verse 2]
I just jumped the watchman
Right outside the fence
Took his rings, four bucks in change
Ain't that heaven sent?
Hurts my ears to listen, Shannon, burns my eyes to see
Cut down a man in cold blood, Shannon, might as well be me
[Verse 3]
We used to play for silver, now we play for life
And one's for sport and one's for blood at the point of a knife
And now the die is shaken, now the die must fall
There ain't a winner in the game, he don't go home with all
Not with all
[Verse 4]
Leavin' Texas, 4th day of July
Sun so hot, the clouds so low, the eagles fill the sky
Catch the Detroit Lightning outta Santa Fe
The Great Northern outta Cheyenne from sea to shinin' sea
[Verse 5]
Gotta go to Tulsa first train we can ride
Gotta settle one old score, one small point of pride
There ain't a place a man can hide, Shannon, will keep him from the sun
Ain't a bed can give us rest now, you keep us on the run
[Verse 6]
Jack Straw from Wichita cut his buddy down
And dug for him a shallow grave and laid his body down
Half a mile from Tucson by the morning light
One man gone and another to go
My old buddy, you're movin' much too slow
[Verse 7]
We can share the women, we can share the wine
