Well, he rode into Blue Rock Dusty and tired And he got him a room for the night He lay there in silence With too much on his mind Still hopin' that he was not right
But he found them that evenin' At a tavern in town In a quiet little out-o'-the-way place And they smiled at each other When he walked through the door And they died with their smiles on their faces They died with a smile on their face
Don't boss him, don't cross him He's wild in his sorrow He's ridin' and hidin' his pain Don't fight him, don't spite him Just wait 'til tomorrow Maybe he'll ride on again
