Sunrise, this is the last
day that I'll ever see
Out in the courtyard
they're ready for me
But I go to my lord with no fear
'Cos I did what I did for Maria
As I rode into town
with the sun going down
All the windows were barred
there was no-one around
For they knew that I'd come
with my hand on my gun
And revenge
in my heart for Maria
My dearest departed Maria
Take an eye for an eye
and a life for a life
And somebody must die
for the death of my wife
Yes I did what I did for Maria
I did what I did for Maria
Laughter echoed across
from the end of the street
There was the man
I was burning to meet
And my mind
was so calm and so clear
As I took my revenge for Maria
And he fell to the ground
raising dust all around
But I knew he was dead
long before he went down
It was quick it was clean
made it easy on him
Which was more
than he did for Maria
When he did
what he did to Maria
Take an eye for an eye
and a life for a life
And somebody must die
for the death of my wife
Yes I did what I did for Maria
I did what I did for Maria
Sunrise, this is the last
day that I'll ever see
Out in the courtyard
they're ready for me
But I go to my lord with no fear
'Cos I did what I did for Maria
Take an eye for an eye
and a life for a life
And somebody must die
for the death of my wife
Yes I did what I did for Maria
I did what I did for Maria
Take an eye for an eye
and a life for a life
And somebody must die
for the death of my wife
Yes I did what I did for Maria
I did what I did for Maria
