Ride alone

Hang them high or haul them down low
I ain’t got no time for the lowdown crawl
I’m doing 20 the noose did not fall
The sheriff wants to see me
do the lowdown crawl
If you don’t love me
when I break these chains
You might have to hang me
after the winter and rains
Cause I ain’t begging
no sheriff with no name
to let me go free
and ride again I’ll ride again

I Ain’t afraid
To ride out alone
Give me some lead
I’ve got to Roam
I had some wanderlust
I’ve done some wrong
the hurt keeps me feeling
The road keeps me strong
I ain’t a Crying
Or too badly shamed
It’s a miracle I’m Leavin
High on the range
I’m high on the range

Most of the time
I feel I don’t belong
So I sent you this letter
in the form of a song
I’ll ride through the dusk
And into the dawn
It’s the Lord that I trust
and I won’t be long
No I won’t be long
I ain’t afraid
To ride out alone
I’ve lived most of my life
With nary a home
No I ain’t afraid
To ride out alone
I’ve lived my life with nary a home
