LyricMeaning

Old Dead West
Brett Newski

Guns have been drawn

Pistols at dawn

Shoot him dead where he stands


Whiskey went dry

Bad guys have shined

Leaving our hero stone dead


We cried and we cried

Til' our eyes were blood dry

Sucking the sand from the wind


The children went missing

The parents went searching

At least what was left of them


The east turned west pretty damn quick

Magnified sun burned through our hats

Wore down our map



The saloon felt stale

The sheriff showed evil

Catching a steer in his beard



He laughed til' he gasped

Because he ran out of breathe

From trashing his nest with a fist


The few that were left

Ran helter skelter

Praying the curse would turn white


But it stayed just as black

As it ever had been

Torching a hole in the sky


The green turned red pretty damn quick

In the thick of it


The dead dying desert

and all that went with it

Bullets sprayed a mist

Landing in houses

and hammered through hearts

Harder than bolts through a brick
