The Midnight Riders - Shooter Bill Lyrics




If you don't shut the hell up I'm gonna shoot you in the ba...

Jeremy went down to the creek where he was born
And sat by the fire till a man came in the morn'
"Your brother's dead he's been killed by a man named Shooter Bill"
Whatever that man lays eyes on, he's damn sure to kill

I can't have thunder without lightning
That's the way it goes
Whichever way your lightning strikes
No one ever knows
I can't have thunder without lightning
That's the way it goes
Whichever way your lightning strikes
No one ever knows

Jeremy stood up and he scrambled for his gun
For the vengeance of his brother had only just begun
Said "Where's that Shooter Bill and a-where's he after that?"
"He's in the town of Jericho and then it's Ararat"

The notes are all mixed up
And the song still sounds the same
Been playing for a real long time
I just learned your game
The notes are all mixed up
And the song still sounds the same
Been playing for a real long time
I just learned your game

Jeremy went down to the bar of Shooter Bill
And found the man who he was sent to kill
"Lookin' for a man with one bad eye and blood as cold as ice"
"Stand up, shut up, listen to my gun's advice"

Mess with me, that's one
And my friends, that's two
Mess around with my brother
You know what I gotta do
Mess with me, that's one
My friends, that's two
Mess around with my brother
You know what I gotta do

I walked along the trial to the house that glowed green
The man and the stories sitting there were the best you ever seen
I heard of times where criminals were allowed to walk the lands
And the seeds of growth sprouting there were dented in their hands

"Do what you love while you can
And when you can't, again
For in the eyes of your enemy
You find a real true friend
Do what you love while you can
And when you can't, again
For in the eyes of your enemy
You find a real true friend"
