Bounty Hunter from Golden Mile by Hereward Kaye

BOUNTY HUNTER

Been many many men of glory in the wild wild west
With a gun in their pocket and a bullet proof vest
Villains and heavies and heroes and hoods
The widest of wide boys, the bad and the good

There was Mad Mitch the Monkey, remover of men
And Dirty Dan Dooney from Deathbed Den
Trocero the Tiny, Stiletto the Tall
But I’ve just become cornered by the ace of them all

Cos there’s a bounty hunter between the border and me
Bounty hunter – the coolest dude I ever did see
Bounty hunter standing as calm as the sea
Bounty hunter, you can take my takings for free

Bounty Hunter, the sun is high on the desert and me
Bounty Hunter, you’ve got me shaking like a leaf on a tree
I’d rather bleed around a shark in a sea
You’ve seen the posters, man I’m not worth the fee
Let me be

Some people strike lucky, some people strike gold
But the man who strikes bounty is ruthless and cold
Sticks to the shadow, waits behind doors
He’s a one man island in a one sided war
High boots of leather that don’t leave a print
Twin barrels staring before you can flinch
Dirty Dan Dooney’s a fly on the wall
To the man on the sand dune watching us all

There’s a bounty Hunter between the border and me
Bounty Hunter – the coolest dude I ever did see
Bounty Hunter standing as calm as the sea
Bounty Hunter, you can take my takings for free
Take it from me
