Cowboy Movie (Alternate Version) [2021 Remaster]

[Verse 1]
Me and my good partners
We were riding back to our camp
We were feeling very fine
Air was clear and slightly damp

[Verse 2]
We were riding back to have ourselves a party
To celebrate the robbing of the train
We were talking kind of low and lazy
About not having to go out soon again, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 3]
You know we hadn't been back at home two hours
We heard a hawk cry out in the night
And you know that's a signal from young Billy, who's our sentry
Saying something here ain't exactly right

[Verse 4]
We grabbed some of our hardware
Stumblеd out of our home
Two minutes flat we had found hеr
An Indian girl all alone

[Verse 5]
And Eli said, "Let's take her back to the cabin"
I said, "You don't know, she might be the law," yeah
He said, smiling kind of nasty
"It ain't too damn likely she'll beat me to the draw"

[Verse 6]
We were walking back through the darkness
I heard the Duke, he's our dynamiter, say, yeah
"What's your name, sweet little Indian girl?"
Said, "Raven," and she looked my way
And I didn't trust her, no
And I said so, oh, no

[Verse 7]
Now, Eli, he's our fastest gunner
He's kind of mean and young from the South
He said, "Fat Albert, you're getting kind of old and weird now
You'd better get your twelve gauge, your shotgun right out," yeah
And I did
Know I

[Verse 8]
Now Eli and the Duke, they got down to it
They each wanted the Indian girl for their own
When they finally got around to asking her
You know she said she'd come to take young Billy home
Woah, no, no, no

[Verse 9]
Eli said he'd kill young Billy
Kill the Duke and, and probably me too, yeah
The Indian girl she said, "Go ahead now, do it"
I said, "Stop it," and she bit my thumb nearly clean through, yeah

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 10]
Now I'm dying here in Albuquerque
I must be the sorriest sight you ever saw
You know the reason I'm the only man that's here to tell it
You know that Indian girl, she wasn't an Indian, she was the law, oh
