COWBOYS AND PIONEERS
COME LEND YOUR
EYES AND EARS
I'VE GOT THE NEED TO TESTIFY
DON'T TRY TO BUILD YOUR NEST
OUT IN THE OPEN WEST
'CAUSE THERE'S
A MILLION WAYS TO DIE
SIX BULLETS IN THE GUT
OR JUST A PAPER CUT
TOO MANY WAYS TO QUANTIFY
THEY'LL CUT YOUR ANKLE OFF
TO CURE A MINOR COUGH
'CAUSE THERE'S
A MILLION WAYS TO DIE
IT'S A HUNDRED AND ONE
IN THE SHADE OF THE SUN
IF YOU FALL ASLEEP, YOU FRY
YOU CAN LIVE LIKE A SAINT
BUT THERE JUST REALLY AIN'T
NO AVOIDIN' A
MILLION WAYS TO DIE...
SMALLPOX AND BIGGER POX
AND DEADLY TOMAHAWKS
OR GOD FORBID
YOU STEAL A PIE
THEY'LL BLAST YOU INTO SHARDS
FOR BEIN' GOOD AT CARDS
'CAUSE THERE'S
A MILLION WAYS TO DIE
OUT ON THE DESERT PLAINS
IT HARDLY EVER RAINS
AND YOU CAN HEAR
COYOTES CRY
THEY'LL EAT YOU UP AND THEN
THEY'LL S##T YOU OUT AGAIN
'CAUSE THERE'S
A MILLION WAYS TO DIE
WITH A WHOOSH AND A WHACK
THERE'S A KNIFE IN YOUR BACK
'CAUSE YOU GOT A FANCY TIE
IT'S A KICK IN THE PANTS
BUT YOU DON'T HAVE A CHANCE
OF ESCAPIN'
A MILLION WAYS TO DIE...
A MILLION WAYS TO DIE.....
