I just wanted a ride Find my way back to you Twenty years old a bleeding heart With nothing to lose I broke from juarez Under cover of night Following gold lookin for work On a the grant country side On the grant countr side I made my home North of miguel and south of chacon On the grant country side Crackin that stone With hammer and drill I was worked to the bone Back in 76, I was hired to find A man in the hills with hate in his heart And god on his side It was just work to me I was taken my time With tackle and mule into the hills On a grant country side On the grant countr side I made my home North of miguel and south of chacon On the grant country side And into the sun I traded the drill For the badge and a gun Tracked him up whiskey creek There was fear in his eyes I steadied my mule Left him for dead On the grant country side.
