Anyone Can Tell

I've been riding hard for three days

And I can't turn back now

They sentenced me to hang

But I slipped away somehow

Hell, I'm the best there is

And that's all you need to know

'Cause I've got outlaw blood

And a restless weary soul

And I'm trying to cross the border

Before the sun sets down tonight

If I keep on riding hard

I'll be a free man come daylight

Hell, I'm the best there is

And that's what I hear them say

But I guess I always knew

That I'd pay my debt someday

They found me in a little town

Just outside of Mexico

I was sold out by a friend

For a handful of pesos

And anyone can tell you

My guns they were not drawn

I was murdered down in cold blood

And left to die at dawn

I've been gone 100 years now

But it seems like yesterday

That the lawman shot me in the dark

And stole my life away

Hell, I'm the best that ever lived

I'm a legend among men

Now every time that pistol fires

A legend rides again

They found me in a little town

Just outside of Mexico

What happened there that night

No one will ever know

But anyone can tell you

That I was unarmed

And anyone can tell you

That I left that night unharmed
