Five Iron Frenzy – Old West lyrics
Some cowboys were ridin', ridin' on the range.
The grass was overgrazed there, and spotted like some mange.
The buffalo were dead there, the trees they all were through, and if they saw
some Injuns, why they would kill them too.
West or bust, in God we trust..
"Let's rape, let's kill, let's steal!"
We can almost justify, anything we feel.
I'm climbing up that ladder, more brownie points for me.
I'll work my way to Jesus, just you wait and see.
Said one cowboy to another,
"I think it would be nice, if we could take these Injuns and convert them all
to Christ. See, they are all disgusting, and bringing me great pain, and if
they dont believe me, we'll put a bullet in their brains!"
I am always shoutin', when i go outside, how people should repent now, or
they're going to die.
My motives are all selfish, I'm a cannonm brimmed with powder.
If people dont believe me, i just beat them and yell louder.
