Some people get a cheap laugh breaking up the speed limit
Scaring the pedestrians for a minute
Crossing up progress driving on the grass
Leaving just enough for room to pass
Sunday driver never took a test
Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west
Yes, it's no use saying that you don't know nothing
It's still gonna get you if don't do something
Sitting on a fence that's a dangerous course
Oh, you could even catch a bullet from the peace-keeping force
Even the hero gets a bullet in the chest
Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west
Mother Mary your children are slaughtered
Some of you mothers ought to lock up your daughters
Who's protecting the innocenti
Heap big trouble in the land of plenty
Tell me how we're gonna do what's best
You guess once upon a time in the west
Once upon a time in the west...

Dire Straits è un gruppo musicale britannico formatosi nel 1977 da Mark Knopfler (chitarra e voce), John Illsley (basso) e Pick Withers (batteria). Il loro sound, caratterizzato da chitarre acustiche e elettriche pulite, testi introspettivi e arrangiamenti minimalisti, si distaccava dal panorama musicale dominato da punk e rock stadium. Il loro album di debutto omonimo del 1978, inizialmente considerato un flop, ottenne un successo inaspettato grazie al singolo "Sultans of Swing", che li consacrò come una delle band più influenti degli anni '80. Tra i loro successi più noti figurano anche "Romeo and Juliet", "Money for Nothing" e "Walk of Life". Dire Straits ha venduto oltre 120 milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo, vincendo numerosi premi Grammy Awards.
