Текст песни
The old gunfighter stood on the porch
And stared into the sun
And relived all the old days,
When he was livin' by the gun
When deadly games of pride were played
And livin' was mistakes not made
And the thought of the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
The thought of the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
And it's always, keep your back to the sun
And you can almost feel the weight of that gun
It's faster than snakes or the blink of an eye
And it's a time for all slow men to die
His eyes get squinty and he's straight as a log
As he empties his gun at the dirty dog
And he's hit by the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Hit by the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Now the burn of a bullet is only a scar
And he's back in his chair there, in front of a bar
And the streets are empty and the blood's all dried
The dead are dust and the whiskey's inside
So buy him a drink and lend him an ear
He's nobody's fool and he's the only one here
Who remembers the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Remembers the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Said: I stood in that street before it was paved
Learned to shoot or be shot before I could shave
And I did it all for the money and the fame
Noble was nothin' but feelin' no shame
And nothin' was sacred but stayin' alive
And all that I learned from a Colt .45
Was to cuss the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Cuss the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Now he's just an old man that nobody believes
Says he's a gunfighter, the last of this breed
And there's ghosts in the street seekin' revenge
Callin' him out to the lunatic fringe
And he's out in the traffic now, checkin' the sun
And he's killed by a car as he goes for his gun
So much for the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
So much for the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
And stared into the sun
And relived all the old days,
When he was livin' by the gun
When deadly games of pride were played
And livin' was mistakes not made
And the thought of the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
The thought of the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
And it's always, keep your back to the sun
And you can almost feel the weight of that gun
It's faster than snakes or the blink of an eye
And it's a time for all slow men to die
His eyes get squinty and he's straight as a log
As he empties his gun at the dirty dog
And he's hit by the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Hit by the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Now the burn of a bullet is only a scar
And he's back in his chair there, in front of a bar
And the streets are empty and the blood's all dried
The dead are dust and the whiskey's inside
So buy him a drink and lend him an ear
He's nobody's fool and he's the only one here
Who remembers the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Remembers the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Said: I stood in that street before it was paved
Learned to shoot or be shot before I could shave
And I did it all for the money and the fame
Noble was nothin' but feelin' no shame
And nothin' was sacred but stayin' alive
And all that I learned from a Colt .45
Was to cuss the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Cuss the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
Now he's just an old man that nobody believes
Says he's a gunfighter, the last of this breed
And there's ghosts in the street seekin' revenge
Callin' him out to the lunatic fringe
And he's out in the traffic now, checkin' the sun
And he's killed by a car as he goes for his gun
So much for the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
So much for the smell of the black powder smoke
And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
