Fast Gun Gettin’ Slow

Lyrics

[Chorus] There's a coyote howlin' somewhere The desert sky is bright There's coffee when the whisky's gone But there's whisky for tonight And dust upon your saddlebags And sand instead of gold And you're just an aging outlaw Just a fast gun gettin' slow [Verse 1] You think about the close ones Hook your thumbs up in your vest The one named Red, he was they said The fastest and the best But something happened to his eyes It must have been his time to die His bullеt pierced the summеr sky You shot him in the chest [Chorus] But there's a coyote howlin' somewhere The desert sky is bright And there's coffee when the whisky's gone But there's whisky for tonight And dust upon your saddlebags And sand instead of gold And you're just an aging outlaw Just a fast gun gettin' slow [Verse 2] Everywhere you rambled The road was still the same And you rob the rich, you stay alive 'Cause that is the outlaw's game And you keep your back against the wall Duck a shot and fake the fall You take your liquor straight And never use your given name [Harmonica Solo] [Verse 3] So, put away your six-guns And put away your dreams Well, the last days of a bad man They're as crazy as they might seem And the banks gettin' hard to rob And the trains are gettin' fast Posse's gainin', your horse is lame And you know you'll never last [Chorus] Now, there's a coyote howlin' somewhere Desert sky is bright And there's coffee when the whisky's gone But there's whisky for tonight And dust upon your saddlebags And sand instead of gold And you're just an aging outlaw Just a fast gun gettin' slow
