Lyrics

On a bandit bounty.
Heading south the Rio Grande
I ran into a party of some newly minted men
Their boss didn't make it
Cause’ he was worth a couple grand
At 17 he became the first to die by my hand
I killed a man in Santa Fe
But I didn't watch him die
He met the barrel of my gun to avenge a friend of mine
He was not the first
Nor the last to die by me
Been chasing bounties through the south
since I was 17
Can't remember what life was like before I found this way
I met a widowed woman and convinced her to stay
We tried to build up a home but the standing wasn't clear
That when you marry a man like me you adopt a life of fear
I killed a man in Santa Fe
But I didn't watch him die
He met the barrel of my gun to avenge a friend of mine
He was not the first
Nor the last to die by me
Been chasing bounties through the south
since I was 17
the life i lead, i always knew would eventually
catch up with a vengeance, destroy all that’s free
And i couldn’t say i’m sorry for all the things that i‘V done
now i’ve met our maker
I’m no longer on the run
I killed a man in Santa Fe
But I didn't watch him die
He met the barrel of my gun to avenge a friend of mine
He was not the first
Nor the last to die by me
Been chasing bounties in my head
since I was 17
