The Johnnys – Ten Outlaws lyrics
Ten outlaws came riding into town
There were six at first
Plus one, two
One two three four
Two outlaws had notches on their guns
Two outlaws had bounties on their heads
Two outlaws were trail-worn, saddle-burned
Two outlaws just wound up full of lead
There were ten outlaws, ten outlaws, ten outlaws
Two were dead
There was eight more
Two outlaws decide to rob a bank
Two outlaws start up a barroom brawl
One was called Larry, one was called Frank
Two outlaws just had to take a fall
There were ten outlaws, ten outlaws, ten outlaws
Four were dead
There was six more
Two outlaws had lovin on their mind
Two outlaws were not the tender kind
Two outlaws deflowered the judge's daughter
Two outlaws hang by the neck cause
The judge didn't think they oughta
There were ten outlaws, ten outlaws, ten outlaws
Six were dead
There was four more
All this time there'd been trouble in town
Sheriff John Barstow had been out on the range trackin rustlers down
He heard the word that there was trouble back in his town
So he climbed on his horse and rode back before the sun went down
Meanwhile back in town there's four outlaws still hangin around
Upon hearing of the arrival of the sheriff man
They laid plans to bring his career to its shortest span
Sheriff Barstow just had to go
So they waited down by the jailhouse
A little drunk, a little dirty, a little scared
The sheriff popped up out of nowhere
And filled the air with blazing lead
And there was one shot, two shots, three shots, four shots
Dead, dead, dead, DEAD, DEAD
There were ten outlaws, ten outlaws, ten outlaws
But there isn't anymore
So mop their blood up off the floor
There were six at first
Plus one, two
One two three four
Two outlaws had notches on their guns
Two outlaws had bounties on their heads
Two outlaws were trail-worn, saddle-burned
Two outlaws just wound up full of lead
There were ten outlaws, ten outlaws, ten outlaws
Two were dead
There was eight more
Two outlaws decide to rob a bank
Two outlaws start up a barroom brawl
One was called Larry, one was called Frank
Two outlaws just had to take a fall
There were ten outlaws, ten outlaws, ten outlaws
Four were dead
There was six more
Two outlaws had lovin on their mind
Two outlaws were not the tender kind
Two outlaws deflowered the judge's daughter
Two outlaws hang by the neck cause
The judge didn't think they oughta
There were ten outlaws, ten outlaws, ten outlaws
Six were dead
There was four more
All this time there'd been trouble in town
Sheriff John Barstow had been out on the range trackin rustlers down
He heard the word that there was trouble back in his town
So he climbed on his horse and rode back before the sun went down
Meanwhile back in town there's four outlaws still hangin around
Upon hearing of the arrival of the sheriff man
They laid plans to bring his career to its shortest span
Sheriff Barstow just had to go
So they waited down by the jailhouse
A little drunk, a little dirty, a little scared
The sheriff popped up out of nowhere
And filled the air with blazing lead
And there was one shot, two shots, three shots, four shots
Dead, dead, dead, DEAD, DEAD
There were ten outlaws, ten outlaws, ten outlaws
But there isn't anymore
So mop their blood up off the floor
