I'll see you at sundown

You can't back out now

The news is all over town

I'll see you at sundown

And they can put one of us

In a hole in the ground



Now it's three in the afternoon

And I'm frightened to death

When you're in the saloon

I wonder if he feels the same

For whoever wins there's still

The cowboy to blame



Sundown, give me some strength

I know I can't go it alone

Sundown, give me your strength

Give me a chance to go home

To go home



Three in the afternoon

And I'm frightened to death

When you're in the saloon

I hear the reverend feels the sin

For whoever wins there's still

The cowboy to blame
