Lyrics
Cowboy Law
A cowboy rides into town
On a pale white horse
With a gun at his side
He’s a one man force
Down a long dusty street
Up to a saloon
As the clock in the town
Rings out high noon
He jumps off his horse
He stands there and shouts
The doors open up
Five men come out
Chorus:
When the guns go off
And the bullets fly
Someone’s gonna live
Someone’s gonna die
Shoot straight, aim true
Be quick on the draw
It’s the way of the West
It’s cowboy law
They ain’t about to give up
They ain’t coming in
‘Cause he’s all by himself
And they've got five men
They say you want one of us
Then you fight all five
He says I’m bringin’ you in
Dead or alive
It’s the end of the line
I am the law
He goes for his gun
They all start to draw
Chorus
The cowboy draws first
His gun swings around
Five shots ring out
Five men go down
Chorus
