Well I rode into town with my ear to the ground
lookin  for a right hand to play.
I felt just right in the heat of the night
I d ridden many miles that day.
I  heard of a place where men got together
playin  and a  layin  it down.
I d go in to win but Lord what a sin
I didn t know they would gun me down.
