Demarco - How the West Was Won lyrics

How the west was won how the west was won
You know! Riding from Mexico to El Paso
Straight 'cross Colorado

How the west was won and when it began
Well, whole heap of dem no know
And waan diss big bad man
When the west was won when it began
Well, whole heap of dem no know and waan diss

Bounty Killa riding through desert
Me riding well mean
Me no lef' mi Winchester
Water inna mi canteen
Clothes look dutty, smell mess up, look mean
Upon mi head top is where mi sombrero lean
Any figure that me see
A gun play pon the scene
Indians! Come down from all tribes
As pretty as mi woman be, if it's she
Me nah go hide


Mi wagon full of money and gold
Profit no man fi run with the
World and lose dem soul
Way down in history weh the
Killa put down him name
Me did murder Billy the Kid
And murder John Wayne
Cowboy come fi test, indian get the same
Me just shot him!
And make him feather dem fly shot him!
Gun a work because of cheap guy

How the west was won how the west was won

Bounty Killa riding inna the hills, Lawd
Fi months and fi days
Waan drop inna the town fi hold
A bath and get a shave
Fi look nice, fi look clean, fi look tidy
From the debt put in
Me waan change mi identity
Suspect a barber man waan fi
Take the Killa's life
When him draw fi him shaving
Cream and him barber knife
From under mi shirt me shoot him with a 45
Me just shot him!
'Cause him waan fi bust mi windpipe
Shot him! No care if the town waan fi fight
When mi lef' the barber saloon
The hotel me check in
Inna the west dem a goon
Dem no have no river
And me see two boy a fight
Over a pan of water me just shot him!
Although him have him gun inna him hand
Shot him! It's my time fi use the bath pan
Shot him! Me kill that fi one cake of soap
Shot him! Kill all that, nah touch no rope

When the west was won and when it began
Well, whole heap of dem no know
And waan diss bog bad man
When the west was won when it began
Well, whole heap of dem no know and waan diss

Well! When me lef' the hotel and
Me reach a the saloon
When the Killa open the door
Every man spot the doom
Man a try find excuse true
Dem waan leave the room
All a bartender come a take up the broom
And a tell the Killa it's
Time to lock the saloon me just kill him!
And take away the goon's tequila kill him!
Inna the west it is golden water
With El Paso inna mi head and
The west deh pon mi mind
Now mi finger pon the trigger
Fi go bark carbine

How the west was won how the west was won

Bounty Killa riding through desert
Me riding well mean
Me no lef' mi Winchester
Water inna mi canteen
Clothes look dutty, smell mess up, look mean
Upon mi head top is where mi sombrero lean
Any figure that me see
It's gun play pon the scene
Indians! Come down from all tribes
As pretty as mi woman be, if it's she
Me nah go hide
Mi wagon full of money and gold
Profit no man fi render the
World and lose dem soul
Way down in history weh the
Killa put down him name
Me did murder Billy the Kid
And murder John Wayne
Cowboy come fi test, indian get the same
Me just shot him!
And make him feather dem fly shot him!
Gun a work because of cheap guy

How the west was won and when it began
Well, whole heap of dem no know
And waan diss bog bad man
When the west was won when it began
Well, whole heap of dem no know and waan diss

Bounty Killa ride through the hills, Lawd
Fi months and fi days
Waan drop inna a town fi hold
A bath and get a shave
Fi look nice, fi look clean, fi look tidy
