Ride This Train (Part 2) — текст песни (Johnny Cash)





Ride this train to any little trail in the West you may find me riding alone late at night
My poor old horse don`t understand why I ride at night and sleep in the daytime
Or why we ride in the bushes and hide every time I hear a noise
Well that`s all I`ve done for months now running and hiding
You see my name is John Wesley Hardin no I`m not proud of the name anymore
They say I`ve killed forty men they tell a lot of different stories about me
Of course I guess I`m to blame for a lot of it
I killed the first time when I was fifteen to save my life but then I had to do it again
Then every bum in the country that was fast with the gun started lookin` for me
They called me the fastest gun alive and I guess I was fast or I wouldn`t be alive now
I got to where I couldn`t walk down a street or in a saloon
Without some trigger-happy cowpoke
Wantin` to prove he could outdraw old John Wesley Hardin
Maybe I got a little bitter and didn`t care whether I killed or not for a while
And I never quite forgot when the authorities in Huntsville prison
Dragged me up in the snow naked and horsewhipped me
Well that`s why I`m ridin` at night I want to go where no one has ever seen me
Where I won`t even have to wear a gun
Maybe I`ll settle down in a quiet little town somewhere
Even get a job on the right side of the law who knows
Maybe in a new town the people will let me forget
