Lyrics

Never wanna rest

When there’s a bounty on my desk

Find that my ‘tension gets arrested by that

Poster in my mind

I got a fugitive to find

Bearin’ my canines, knowin’ that later I

Will have won

The countdown

Has begun

VERSE 1:

Tracin’ blood through the mud, I can smell his fear

Wounded prey ain’t hard to track

“Life was hard behind bars”, said the shakin’ deer

“And I ain’t goin’ back!”

Tossed a pistol, made it crystal clear what’s next:

Ten paces or the iron cuffs

Your last chance to dance is layin' at your feet

All you have to do is pick it up.

Hah!

CHORUS:

Time’s in my control

You won’t see the light of day

So show me what you got

Take your best shot

Fire away

BRIDGE 1:

Seems the next to hang’s

Gonna be an entire gang

This event will end with a bang like dy-na-

Might’ve had a chance

But I made physics look askance

Big iron romance, they’n I go'n dance

Five to one

They go down

Like the sun

VERSE 2:

Chase you down like the sound of a sizzling spark

On a trail of TNT

Got your pals, all corralled, just for a lark

No one left but you and me

And the tick-tock of my flintlock’s hangfire

Lights your lifespan like a powder trail

Had a little fun, thought you could run from me?

Gonna tell ya, looks like you failed

Aw...

CHORUS:

Time’s in my control

And you know what people say

So show me what you got

Take your best shot

Fire away

BRIDGE 2:

Time to make amends

I got a client wants revenge

Jailbird had killed his former friend and the law

Let the bird fly free

Black-hearted murder up a tree

So he comes to me cause I’m reputedly

Number one

By sundown

I’ll be done

VERSE 3:

There’s a notch on her watch for each man she’s killed

I think it’s cute she still has room

She’s the cock of the walk at her prison guild

Chick’s about to meet her doom

Gotta hand it to the bandit she can crow real loud

But every swan has a final song

Might be a canary fairly soon I fear

'Cause her lifespan ain't lookin' long!

Hah~!

Time’s in my control

So’s the barrel of this gun

So show me what you got

Take your best shot

Now I’ve won
