I've been riding hard for three days And I can't turn back now They sentenced me to hang But I slipped away somehow Hell, I'm the best there is And that's all you need to know 'Cause I've got outlaw blood And a restless weary soul And I'm trying to cross the border Before the sun sets down tonight If I keep on riding hard I'll be a free man come daylight Hell, I'm the best there is And that's what I hear them say But I guess I always knew That I'd pay my debt someday They found me in a little town Just outside of Mexico I was sold out by a friend For a handful of pesos And anyone can tell you My guns they were not drawn I was murdered down in cold blood And left to die at dawn I've been gone 100 years now But it seems like yesterday That the lawman shot me in the dark And stole my life away Hell, I'm the best that ever lived I'm a legend among men Now every time that pistol fires A legend rides again They found me in a little town Just outside of Mexico What happened there that night No one will ever know But anyone can tell you That I was unarmed And anyone can tell you That I left that night unharmed
