Hired Gun (Lefthand cover - co-written by Pete)

From Houston to New Orleans,
To the badlands way out west,
A high rider way beneath the sun,
When my work is done,
There's no place I'm goin' to,
That's the life of a Hired Gun,

Sheriff and his posse they came riding after me,
Spend my life living on the run,
Well no good waiting for me,
Left up to adore me,
That's the life of a Hired Gun

Sometimes I think I'll settle down,
Try to change my ways,
but what's the use in dreaming,
I'll just drift around,
Go from town to town

Go were they require me,
Fight for those who hire me,
Spend my life like a lonely one,
When the day is through,
No place I'm goin' to,
That's the life of a Hired Gun

(that's the life of a crack-bomb)

Sometimes I think I'll settle down,
Try to change my ways,
but what's the use in dreaming,
I'll just drift around,
Go from town to town,
Thats the life of a Hired Gun.

Alternate lyrics:

Well, from Houston to New Orleans
To the badlands way out west
I high ride anywhere beneath the sun
Yeah there ain't no girl waiting for me
Left up in my afterglory
That's the life of a hired gun

You know the sheriff and his posse's come a-ridin' after me
Spent my time living on the run
Yeah there ain't no one left to mourn me
No one left up to adore me
And that's the life of a hired gun

Sometimes I think I'll settle down
And change my ways
But what's the use in dreaming?
For I just drift around
I move from town to town

Well, I'll go where they require me
And I'll fight for those who hire me
Spend my time living like a lonely one
Yeah there ain't no girl waiting for me
No one left up in my afterglory
That's the life of a hired gun

Sometimes I think that I'll settle down
And change my ways
But what's the use in dreaming?
For I just drift around
And I move from town to town

So as I get back from New Orleans
I still got Houston in my sights
I've been high riding in sun
Keepin' up the fight
Yet but as I get back from shore
I'm still at bay from any war
And that's the life of a hired gun
That's the life
That's the life
That's the life
Of a hired gun
