The Bellamy Brothers - Living In The West

 

John Wesley Harding shot a man for snoring
Killed him in the bed right where he lay
He took a snort of whisky and went back to his sleeping
Rode out before they found him the next day

Now the brothers Frank and Jesse no one could be more fearsome
They robbed the trains and rode in the outlaw gangs
The civil war was over but still they fought for Dixie
And legend has their last name to be James

Living in the west must have been the best
Must have been the greatest times of all
Me I lived in the east and I was bored to say the least
Cause I never saw them sons of guns in barrooms starting brawls

Little William Bonney Billy the Kid they called him
Had to use a six gun to survive
He bit the dust at twenty-one but he left a reputation
A notch for every year he was alive
