Molly Hatchet - Gunsmoke Lyrics
I rode into town with my ear to the ground,Looking for the right band to play,I felt just right in the heat of the night,Ridden many miles that day.Ive heard of a place where men go together,Playin and layin it down,Im going to win, but lord, what a sin,I didnt know they gun me down.Chorus:Gunsmoke on the horizon, hiding the setting sun.Gunsmoke on the horizon, I grabbed my horse and run.Well, the dealer was blind, I was trying to find,A way to keep the winnings Id found.The smoke was thick, the tension was thicker,I still thought theyd gun me down.Chorus:Gunsmoke on the horizon, hiding the setting sun.Gunsmoke on the horizon, I grabbed my horse and run.I didnt come into this ol two horse town,To get all shot up. Ive got a little livin on my mind,Aces and eights, ha-ha-ha-ha.Now the dealer dealt me eight and I had my straight,I knew the other men would call.The booze was a flowin, the cards were showing,But my back was up against the wall.Chorus:Gunsmoke on the horizon, hiding the setting sun.Gunsmoke on the horizon, I grabbed my horse and run.Cmon thunder.
