Pale Rider - The Heavy Horses

 

Ride to town, shoot them up and keep on going

Cause I got a job to do and I don't stop for no one

So get your gun, and kiss your wife, and lock up your daughter

Don't let her fall in love with the pale rider

 

Many men 've quickly found I'm unforgiving

They say dying ain't no way to make a living

So get your gun and bet your life, if you're a gambler

You draw a dead man's hand against the pale rider

 

And I walked down into Mexico

What I came for I think you know

I take another life, it's all the same

It's one more killing to the man that has no name

 

So ride to town, shoot em up and keep on going

Cause I got a job to do and I'll be gone come morning

Get your gun, and kiss your wife and hug your daughter

Tell her you're off to meet the pale rider

Don't let her fall in love with the pale rider

 

And I walked down into Mexico

What I came for I think you know

I take another life, it's all the same

It's one more killing to the man that has no name

It's one more bullet to the man that has no name

In the Year 2525 - Zager & Evans

 

In the year 2525, if man is still alive If woman can survive, they may find In the year 3535 Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lie Everything you think, do and say Is in the pill you took today In the year 4545 You ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes You won't find a thing to chew Nobody's gonna look at you In the year 5555 Your arms hangin' limp at your sides Your legs got nothin' to do Some machine's doin' that for you In the year 6565 Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too From the bottom of a long glass tube In the year 7510 If God's a-coming, He oughta make it by then Maybe He'll look around Himself and say "Guess it's time for the Judgement Day" In the year 8510 God is gonna shake His mighty head He'll either say, "I'm pleased where man has been" Or tear it down, and start again In the year 9595 I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive He's taken everything this old earth can give And he ain't put back nothing Now it's been ten thousand years, man has cried a billion tears For what, he never knew, now man's reign is through But through eternal night, the twinkling of starlight So very far away, maybe it's only yesterday
