Dean Brody - Cattlemans gun

He rode ^Dinto town one ^Cdust storm Sheepskin ^Gcloak a^Fcross his ^Dback A ^Dpreacher man with ^Ckind old eyes And a ^Gmystery for a ^Dpast He said he'd ^Ccome to teach about The love of ^DGod But he ^Fsoon learned what they were missing there Was ^Ajustice and the law

There was a ^Dcattleman who ^Cclaimed his clan Owned ^Gall the ^Fland a^Dround And ^Dany brave fool who that ^Cmight dispute He was ^Gquick to ^Fsnuff 'em ^Dout He'd say ^Ctake my heed And you won't pay the ^Dprice 'Cause ^Fhonor and a name ain't worth a damn If ^Ayou don't have your life

He'd say ^Dain't nobody faster Than this ^Ccattleman's gun I'm a ^Grattlesnake on the ^Dtrigger ^DYour last stand'll be ^Clyin' in the sand ^GFallin' to the ^Fslam of my ^Dhammer

So ^Done man taught for^Cgiveness While the ^Gother ^Ftaught suffe^Dring The ^Dpreacher said de^Cliverance Could be ^Gfound ^Fdown on their ^Dknees He said ^CI know that you want justice And you want ^Dblood But be^Flieve me when I say to you Don't ^Atry and be that man's judge

He'd say ^Dain't nobody faster Than this ^Ccattleman's gun I'm a ^Grattlesnake on the ^Dtrigger ^DYour last stand'll be ^Clyin' in the sand ^GFallin' to the ^Fslam of my ^Dhammer

^DOne day a young ^Cfarmer Brought his ^Gsons to ^Ftown for ^Dfeed And he ^Dnoticed that the ^Cstreets were quiet And he ^Gknew what ^Fthat might ^Dmean The ^Csmoke rose in the distance His farm b^Durned to the ground He let the ^Ffury overtake him When ^ACattleman came back to town.

Those ^Dboys ran out from be^Chind the crowd And ^Gwatched their daddy ^Ddie The ^Dbig man laughed and said now ^Clook at that Anybody ^Gelse wanna give it a ^Dtry Well, the ^Dchurch doors opened With that ^Cblack cloak flowin' Behind the ^Gpreacher's ^Ffiery ^Deyes He said your ^Dticket to Hell is a comin' to you And I got a ^Ahollow-point to give you the ride

And the ^Donly thing faster Than the ^Ccattleman's gun Was the ^Gpreacher man's hand and ^Dfinger He pulled ^Diron from his side And let ^Cthat bullet fly Beat the ^Grattlesnake ^Fto the ^Dhammer

While the ^Dpreacher embraced for^Cgiveness Oh they ^Gfinally ^Funder^Dstood... ^DUnder that sheepskin ^Ccloak of his Was a ^Ghistory of ^Dblood...
