As I look to the west I won't make it out I guess
As I look to the east I can see you catching me
I have rode for miles and miles
On a horse through a hundred towns
But you're still chasing me
To the ends of the earth it seems
But now I've lost my will
I'll pay the price you shouldn't kill
There is nowhere left for me
Take me back a noose I'll fill
If I run to the west do you think I'll get some rest
If I wait for the east will my mind be at peace
I have rode for miles and miles
Left my home and family ties
But his face is still haunting me
It's no use I can't be free
But now I've lost my will
I'll pay the price you shouldn't kill
There is nowhere left for me
Take me back a noose I'll fill
