modern day cowboy

Singer:tesla

stormy night

under jet-black skies

billy pulls into town

thunder rolled

and the lightning bolts

come crashin' to the ground

cold as ice

hard as stone

as he walks into the room

with another man who was feeling the same way

all hell's breakin' loose

bang bang

shoot 'em up

bang bang

blow you away

it's a showdown in the no man's land for the cowboy of the modern day

come on

sundown

don't be hangin' 'round

'cause the cowboy'll blow you away

al capone

and the bad boy jones

on the wrong side of the law

johnny d

and his company

always first to the draw

gangster lean

feelin' so mean

tryna take more than their share

'cause all they saw

was ruling it all

the scent of blood was in the air

bang bang

shoot 'em up

bang bang

blow you away

it's a showdown in the no man's land for the cowboy of the modern day

come on

sundown

don't be hangin' 'round

'cause the cowboy'll blow you away

so here we are

and we've come this far

but it's only getting worse

foreign lands

with their terrorist demands

only cause the good to hurt

the u.s.a. the u.s.s.r. with their six-guns to the side

i see the message written on the wall. too much anger deep inside

bang bang

i shoot 'em up

bang bang

blow you away

it's a showdown in the no man's land for the cowboy of the modern day

oh

come on

sundown

don't be hangin' 'round

'cause the cowboy'll blow you away

it's a showdown!
