On a dusty old trail, a young cowboy sleeps easy at evening, shining across the plains.

The ruthless intentions of an ill -fated dreamer have always ended this way.

A trusty old six -gun he captured for his powers is now lying free upon the ground.

And an old horse, the only friend he knew, is patiently hanging around.

When silver -lined saddles and deep Texas romance unfold,

For what it's all worth, the young cowboy will give his own soul.

And the price of a life is a payment for plundering gold.

For all who must wonder, the wind holds her secret, but a footstone will tell the story true.

A bitter reminder for all who must wonder, evil that one man can do.

Just like this young cowboy who's dead on the prairie, their fortunes were all sought in vain.

And a cold grave is all that they have to show for a gunfight in flames.

When silver -lined saddles and deep Texas romance unfold,

For what it's all worth, the young cowboy will give his own soul.

And the price of a life is a payment for plundering gold.
