All your ol' stations are being torn down And the high flying trains no longer roar The floors're all sagging with boards a suffering From not being used anymore.
Things're all changing the world's rearranging A time that will soon be no more Where has a slow movin' Once quickdraw outlaw got to go?
The whiskey that once settled the dust And tasted so fine now taste so faint And the mem'ries that once floated out come back stronger More clearly with each drink you take.
The women that warmed you once thought So pretty now look haggard and old Where has a slow movin' Once quickdraw outlaw got to go?
The land where I travel once fashion with beauty Now stands with scars on her face The wide open spaces are closing in quickly From the ways of the whole human race.
And it's not that I blame them for claiming her bounty I just wish they're takin' it slow 'Cause where has a slow movin' Once quick draw outlaw got to go?
Where has a slow movin' Once quick draw outlaw got to go?..
