Sometimes I wander on a Sunday afternoon
Take a walk through a ghost town
I always end up in that dry saloon
Only place I don't feel alone, with no one around
Vultures begin to circle above
Stagnant I remain
They're feasting away on what I once was
As all our lives, fade the same
We've loved and lost, and paid the cost, struggled in vain
Though sin we'll survive, and at death we'll be tried
When we, fade
Don't say my name to those mothers and fathers, that I let survive
When I took their sons and their daughters, with my colt 45's
We've loved and lost, and paid the cost, struggled in vain
Though sin we'll survive, and at death we'll be tried
When we, fade
Hours pass without a drop of whiskey
Lord take me soon
Bury me with my brothers and sisters
Beneath this saloon
We've loved and lost, and paid the cost, struggled in vain
Though sin we'll survive, and at death we'll be tried
When we, fade
