Butch Cassidy Lyrics
butch cassidy i could've been your friend, and rode with you
and the sundance kid. we'd laugh awhile and we'd smile a bit, cause crimes
like our arent counterfit. they say you never even killed a man,
till it came right down to your final stand.
bullets flyin and the wounded cryin and your buddy he's goin down. get lower
and the feelins show and you gave off the final sound. cause a soldiers
death is so much better than defeat just hangin around.
defeat just hangin around
and the sundance kid. we'd laugh awhile and we'd smile a bit, cause crimes
like our arent counterfit. they say you never even killed a man,
till it came right down to your final stand.
bullets flyin and the wounded cryin and your buddy he's goin down. get lower
and the feelins show and you gave off the final sound. cause a soldiers
death is so much better than defeat just hangin around.
defeat just hangin around

You dont have to sit in the dark with your eyes closed to realize this is a pretty straightforward song in which Jim talks about the more romanticized aspects of being an outlaw with a heart.
listen to this one after midnight and you'll understand it. it has to be dark, and you need to be open to hearing it. it works best with your eyes closed. such a darn beautiful song.
Simply amazing. So very haunting and beautiful.
