"Peacemaker (ballad. of Tombstone)"

VERSE 1:

 Fresh off the train and new in town,

want a fresh start, ain't messin around.

Ain't a Peacemaker, but I carry one,

hit the first saloon to get out of the sun.

There's the dealer, a lie and a cheat,

I go and tell him to get out of my seat

Says "I'm real scared" as he starts to rise,

 "You're damn right, I see it in your eyes"!

CHORUS 1:

Skin that smoke wagon, do it boy,

I ain't no joke, no I ain't no ploy,

skin that Smoke wagon,

 it'll be the last time ya touch a pistol

I can promise ya that.

VERSE 2:

Don't look for trouble, it's all around,

don't look to fight I want peace in this town.

Push me in a corner and I'll show my teeth,

got 6 in the chamber get ya piece by piece.

Another fool, a drunk and a cheat,

gets in my face wants me out in the street.

 

I back slap him, across the lip,

 that damn fool goes reachin for his hip!

CHORUS 2:

Skin that smoke wagon, do it boy,

I ain't no joke, no I ain't no ploy,

skin that Smoke wagon,

 it'll be the last time ya touch a pistol

I can promise ya that

Solo

VERSE 3:

Dont look for trouble it's all around,

dont look to fight I want Peace in this town,

push me in a corner and I'll show my teeth,

got 6 in the chamber get ya piece by piece.

the dealer, a lie and a cheat,

I go and tell him to get out of my seat

CHORUS 3:

Skin that Smoke wagon,

do it boy, I ain't no joke. No I ain't no ploy
Skin that wagon whatcha waitin for?

Just like I thought, I'll throw ya out the door!
