This here was our situation[00:00:00]

We was just young wildwood boys[00:00:08]

New as the birth of the nation[00:00:13]

The kind that the army employs[00:00:19]

High riding rebs from missouri[00:00:25]

Fought for the grey and for the rell[00:00:31]

Caught up by the battle and the fury[00:00:37]

Back when just living was hell[00:00:43]

After the battle was over[00:00:52]

And after the union had won[00:00:57]

It was quitting that made us the loser[00:01:03]

So we kept doing just what we'd done[00:01:08]

Riding as comrads together[00:01:15]

We looted the trains and the banks[00:01:20]

Removing that carpetbag money[00:01:26]

And sticking it hard to the yanks[00:01:32]

Death always follows behind you[00:01:42]

When you ride down that old outlaw trail[00:01:46]

Someday a bullet will find you[00:01:52]

Or you'll rot like a corpse in some jail[00:01:58]

Turning your back to the danger[00:02:04]

Is a wager no man can afford[00:02:09]

Cause gold turns a friend to a stranger[00:02:15]

Like old judas turned on our lord[00:02:22]

Men are revered and remembered[00:02:27]

While they lay in that coffing and rot[00:02:32]

Some live in the legends of history[00:02:38]

Most are forever forgot[00:02:44]

The victory it goes to the strongest[00:02:50]

And only the strong will survive[00:02:55]

Survival is living the longest[00:03:01]

But nobody gets out alive[00:03:08]

questions The don't never get answered[00:03:15]

And the rights they're remembered all wrong[00:03:20]

The facts they can get plenty confusing[00:03:26]

So someday if you happen to be singing this song[00:03:31]

Remember it's just for the record[00:03:36]

You can't change the handwork of fate[00:03:45]

And tell them I lived for the moment[00:03:51]

And I died when I tried to go straight[00:03:58]
