Songtexte: Molly Hatchet. Saddle Tramp.
Well I pulled out of canyon county, great cradle of the west
My mama and me and one alone dog tryin' to do our best
Strangers all around me said no one knew my name
I came to take the back this land, I came to stake my claim, yes sir
The farm is all I've ever known, it bears my families name
But damn my brother got drunk one night and lost it all in a poker game
Shots rang through the silence, I heard the angels cry
You never arrive a winner, a saint or a sinner, the boy said aces high
Saddle Tramp you're back in action
Lookin' for the man who took my brother, I came to put him down
Saddle Tramp you spend your whole life runnin' like the wind
Going for the bounty but riding for the thrill, yeah
Mama died of a broken heart, the way my brother threw his life away
But when they put him in the ground, it like to kill me just the same
Half past the hour of midnight, looked into the killers eyes
I pulled my 45 and bullets started flyin', the man he had to die
Saddle Tramp you're back in action
Lookin' for the man who took my brother, I came to put him down
Saddle Tramp you spend your whole life runnin' like the wind
Going for the bounty but riding for the thrill
Saddle Tramp you're back in action
Lookin' for the man who took my brother, I came to put him down
Saddle Tramp you spend your whole life runnin' like the wind
Going for the bounty but riding for the thrill
Saddle Tramp you're back in action
Lookin' for the man who took my brother, I came to put him down
Saddle Tramp you spend your whole life runnin' like the wind
Going for the bounty but riding for the thrill
Every time you take a life the devils watching you
He'll fill you with a pack of lies and he'll steal your soul from you, I say
My mama and me and one alone dog tryin' to do our best
Strangers all around me said no one knew my name
I came to take the back this land, I came to stake my claim, yes sir
The farm is all I've ever known, it bears my families name
But damn my brother got drunk one night and lost it all in a poker game
Shots rang through the silence, I heard the angels cry
You never arrive a winner, a saint or a sinner, the boy said aces high
Saddle Tramp you're back in action
Lookin' for the man who took my brother, I came to put him down
Saddle Tramp you spend your whole life runnin' like the wind
Going for the bounty but riding for the thrill, yeah
Mama died of a broken heart, the way my brother threw his life away
But when they put him in the ground, it like to kill me just the same
Half past the hour of midnight, looked into the killers eyes
I pulled my 45 and bullets started flyin', the man he had to die
Saddle Tramp you're back in action
Lookin' for the man who took my brother, I came to put him down
Saddle Tramp you spend your whole life runnin' like the wind
Going for the bounty but riding for the thrill
Saddle Tramp you're back in action
Lookin' for the man who took my brother, I came to put him down
Saddle Tramp you spend your whole life runnin' like the wind
Going for the bounty but riding for the thrill
Saddle Tramp you're back in action
Lookin' for the man who took my brother, I came to put him down
Saddle Tramp you spend your whole life runnin' like the wind
Going for the bounty but riding for the thrill
Every time you take a life the devils watching you
