Lyrics Saddle tramp Molly Hatchet

 857

Saddle tramp


well, i pulled out of canyon county
great cradle of the west
my mama and me and one lone dog
Tryin to do our best
strangers all around me
said none knew my name
i came to take back this land
i came to stake my claim, yes sir

the farm is all i've ever know
it bears my family name
but, damn, my brother got drunk one night
and lost it all in a poker game
shots rang through the silence
i heard the angels cry
you never arrive a winner a saint or a sinner
the boy said aces high

(chorus)
saddletramp you're back in action
lookin for the man that took my brother
i came to put him down
saddletramp you spend your whole life
runnin like the wind....going for the bounty but
riding for the thrill

mama died of a broken heart
the way myy brother threw his life away
but when they put him in the ground
it like to kill me just the same
half past the hour of midnight
i looked into the killers eyes
i pulled my 45 and bullets started flyin
the man he had to die

(chorus) 2x

everytime you take a life,
the devils watching you
he'll fill you with a pack of lies
and he'll steal your soul from you......i say

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics SADDLE TRAMP of MOLLY HATCHET is also present in the album Silent reign of heroes (1998)

Biografia

Molly Hatchet is an American southern rock band formed in Jacksonville, Florida, in 1975. Founded by Dave Hlubek and Steve Holland, the band's name comes from a prostitute who allegedly mutilated and decapitated her clients. Their music is characterized by heavy guitar riffs, catchy melodies, and lyrics often inspired by Southern US everyday life. Their self-titled debut album (1976) achieved moderate success, but it was with their second album, *Flirtin' with Disaster* (1978), that the band reached international fame thanks to the title track single. Other representative songs include "Gator Country" and "Devil's Canyon". Molly Hatchet has continued to record music to this day, maintaining a loyal fan base worldwide.
