can't cheat the hangman - american nomads lyrics

Loading...

on a snow covered mountain with a storm blowin’ in
still riding high but getting dangerously thin
beyond the reach of the law, but never beyond his past

quick to anger again, quick to take a new life
quick to drowning it all in his colt 45
it was a drunken rage that somebody could never forget
we all answer to someone in the end

you can try, but you can’t cheat the hangman
no matter what you do, he will always find a way
to catch on up to you

you can run, but you can’t hide
pretend it’s all a lie
but you don’t stand a ghost of a chance
you can try, but you can’t cheat the hangman

you can shoot the sheriff and an innocent man
down a pull of whiskey while they bleed to death
but you can’t ride off in the darkness
without a bounty placed on your head

dead or alive, no border, no lines
no questions will be asked, your reward for your find
follow the moon and the whispering winds
until the wolf rises up again
everybody’s got to answer in the end
you can try, but you can’t cheat the hangman
no matter what you do, he will always find a way
to catch on up to you

you can run, but you can’t hide
pretend it’s all a lie
but you don’t stand a ghost of a chance
you can try, but you can’t cheat the hangman

if history has a way of repeating itself
there isn’t much more left to be said
as billy, jesse, butch and john hardy chose their fates
in the end

you can try, but you can’t cheat the hangman
no matter what you do, he will always find a way
to catch on up to you

you can run, but you can’t hide
pretend it’s all a lie
but you don’t stand a ghost of a chance
you can try, but you can’t cheat the hangman

you can try, but you can’t cheat the hangman
you can’t cheat the hangman
you can’t cheat the hangman
