In the badlands long ago There's a story often told Of a wanted man they thought they'd left to hang Then a stranger passing through Made a deal and cut him loose Could have left him for dead But this is what he said Come on ride with me Let's blaze a trail of glory Set our spirits free Live and die with me You got nothin' left to lose When you stand in a dead man's shoes Dead man's shoes A desperado and a wanted man Their reputation spread across the land Many good men tried and failed But no-one ever lived to tell the tale Now they're dead and gone But the legend still lives on Come on ride with me Let's blaze a trail of glory Set our spirits free Live and die with me You got nothin' left to lose When you stand in a dead man's shoes Dead man's shoes Dead man's shoes Come on ride with me Let's blaze a trail of glory Set our spirits free Live and die with me 'Cos you got nothin' left to lose Nothin' left to lose Come on ride with me Let's blaze a trail of glory Set our spirits free Live and die with me You got nothin' left to lose When you stand in a dead man's shoes Dead man's shoes Dead man's shoes
