Edge of Sundown Songtext

von Molly Hatchet

On the Edge of Sundown...a man rode into town
His clothes were old and dirty
Like the guns he wore low down
As he rode the people stared...tried to look on him
He's the man who'll take your life
Take it off to boot hill...

Sleeps by day and rides by night
Like a mongroul always lookin'for a fight
Got cold steel...a bowie knive...it's just his way of life
He took no one...no not a sound
Stares at the edge of town
The only time that he'll be found
Is on the Edge of Sundown...

Take you for your dollar babe...
Take you for your gold
He'll make your life so miserabel
He's gonna leave you mean and cold
Then he'll head on out...yes...to another town
The only time that he'll be found...
Is on the Edge of Sundown
Next time will be Sundown...

He's a killer and a robber
And he'll make you grieve
Shoot you in the back or in your sleep
Got no name or identity...livin'like the wind he's free...
