bounty hunter

heard a knock on my door

i'd been pacing the floor

waiting for them

two dark figures sit down

strike a match off the ground

the three of us lean in

they put a map on the table

and a bag of brand new cash

told me this town's got a killer

and the money's yours if you bring him back

so out that door on my horse

grab my hat and my gun

where's his tracks

what's his name

god i can't wait to run

'cause it's time

to send a killer straight back to hell

and a bounty hunter

is what i am

i'll shoot him down on a hillside

and pump him full of lead

or bring him right back to jail

but he'll wish he was dead

i've been ridin' two weeks

tracking this dirty beast

deep in the woods

one night my horse he got spooked

i jumped off and i move

to hind behind a bush

and we let off all our gunfire

when it ended he was on his back

his face looked just like his picture

ugly outlaw with a black mustache

back on that road on my horse

grab my hat and my gun

found his tracks

know his name

man i can't wait to run

'cause it's time

to send a killer straight back to hell

and a bounty hunter

is what i am

i shot him down on a hillside

and pumped him full of lead

i'll bring his ass back to jail

but he's already dead

i rode back into town

they had to see it themselves

they asked what i'd do with all the money

i told 'em i'd go buy more shells

heard a knock on my door

i'd been pacing the floor

waiting for them
