These little lines of strings are playin' hellish games with me I've half a mind to stay behind inside where I'm unseen She took me by the noose, and said I'm wanted on the scene So here I am, my gun in hand, you betchyer gonna know my name
With all the other broken souls layin' around Ain't got a helping hand to see them find their own lost way Bet I know what you been thinkin', that these cords will tie me down But sure as it keeps my hand steady, y'all are gonna know my name
Ooh, ooh... Take down a hundred more I'll be showin' y'all what for Meet me on the steppin' floor This puppet'll settle the score
I'm the quickest draw you'll ever meet, no cracks about it I'm not just your average bronco, no sense tryin' to hide it Pry these fingers off me, they'll just take my gun and my aim The only part of me that's left is my name Ooh, ooh... Ooh, ooh, ooh...
So if you step onto this wooden stage with me And find the hand that feeds ya makes ya scared of all that's free If all that you been drinkin's just the nectar of defeat Then you're among friendly faces in this pantomiming game
Ooh, ooh... Give 'em Hell, pard'ner Take down a hundred more I'll be showin' y'all what for Meet me on the steppin' floor This puppet'll settle the score
I'm the quickest draw you'll ever meet, no cracks about it I'm not just your average bronco, no sense tryin' to hide it Pry these fingers off me, they'll just take my gun and my aim The only part of me that's left is my name Ooh, ooh... Ooh, ooh, ooh...
They say that it's a sin to wish for everything and more That all you got is what you gotta thank the heavens for Well I am surely grateful that the path laid before me's Nice and clear as it can be as long as I play meek and tame
A little bit of terror helps to steel the nerves, I find There ain't no better way to make ya feel so alive It's just a little test to see the difference that it makes Between the hunter and the hunted, well, you're gonna fear my name
I'm the quickest draw you'll ever meet, no cracks about it I'm not just your average bronco, no sense tryin' to hide it Pry these fingers off me, they'll just take my gun and my aim The only part of me that's left is my name
Now on the ride out in the night you might hear a tale Of what can happen to an outlaw roamin' in the plains All strung up in the old town square is how the mighty fell And here I am, a broken puppet, but you're gonna know my name
