Gomez - Butch's Ballad lyrics
[Gomez - Butch's Ballad lyrics]
Second time I saw you was
The day I nearly died
Not thinkin' we'd be good friends
You'd just buried me alive
Now we ride together
Silver steed and mask to hide
Face that I was born with
One that Butch would recognize
He took my freedom and then my brother, Dan
He was the captain of the Texas Ranger team
That Butch just shot him down
And left him bleeding on the ground
Turned his horse's head and sode
To take my brothers town
Oh, the Lone Ranger ride my silvеr steed
Breakin' out, laws to hand
Shootin' silver bullets
Tryin' to savе 'em while I can
Oh, the Lone Ranger the violence may not end
With Tonto we'll defend until we die
Onward we rode for many nights and many days
Out in the open danger never far away
Until that day it came
I saw that Butch ridin' with his gang
I told him to his face all
His evils and his wrongs
Said, "Listen Butch
You best just come along"
He laughed right back at me and
Asked for right to appeal
"Either that or you can serve
Me my last meal"
Oh, the Lone Ranger i ride my silver steed
Breakin' out, laws to hand
Shootin' silver bullets
Tryin' to save 'em while I can
Oh, the Lone Ranger the violence may not end
With Tonto we'll defend until we die
Quiet desert sounds was all you could hear
You cage in a breath as
The horses drew in air
"Yes, serve your last meal
That's something I can do
Cold, hard silver is the
Last thing you'll consume"
Oh, the Lone Ranger i ride my silver steed
Breakin' out, laws to hand
Shootin' silver bullets
Tryin to save 'em while I can
Oh, the Lone Ranger the violence may not end
With Tonto we'll defend until we die oh, oh
The day I nearly died
Not thinkin' we'd be good friends
You'd just buried me alive
Now we ride together
Silver steed and mask to hide
Face that I was born with
One that Butch would recognize
He took my freedom and then my brother, Dan
He was the captain of the Texas Ranger team
That Butch just shot him down
And left him bleeding on the ground
Turned his horse's head and sode
To take my brothers town
Oh, the Lone Ranger ride my silvеr steed
Breakin' out, laws to hand
Shootin' silver bullets
Tryin' to savе 'em while I can
Oh, the Lone Ranger the violence may not end
With Tonto we'll defend until we die
Onward we rode for many nights and many days
Out in the open danger never far away
Until that day it came
I saw that Butch ridin' with his gang
I told him to his face all

Said, "Listen Butch

Oh, the Lone Ranger i ride my silver steed

Oh, the Lone Ranger the violence may not end
With Tonto we'll defend until we die oh, oh
