There’s anger & hatred all around me
Please keep my young one’s close to you
The whole of my life has gotten up with me
No time to start my life anew
Judgment now stands before this man
The phoenix rises from the flame
And if there’s a life ever after
I won’t tell nobody my old name
There’s gotta be a way
There’s gotta be a way
There’s gotta be a way out of this town x2
I’m running short of breath
I’m moving closer now to death
There’s gotta be a way out of this town
Thought they caught me in the act
But all they saw was some man’s back
& That man didn’t have the face of me
I was with my loving wife
When he gunned that marshal down
And committed daylight robbery
There’s anger….
The whole of my life has just flashed before my eyes
I’m running out of things that I can do.
Please keep my young one’s close to you
The whole of my life has gotten up with me
No time to start my life anew
Judgment now stands before this man
The phoenix rises from the flame
And if there’s a life ever after
I won’t tell nobody my old name
There’s gotta be a way
There’s gotta be a way
There’s gotta be a way out of this town x2
I’m running short of breath
I’m moving closer now to death
There’s gotta be a way out of this town
Thought they caught me in the act
But all they saw was some man’s back
& That man didn’t have the face of me
I was with my loving wife
When he gunned that marshal down
And committed daylight robbery
There’s anger….
The whole of my life has just flashed before my eyes
I’m running out of things that I can do.
