Sitting in this cell we're s'posed to hang in the morn They got a rope hung for each of our necks right out there They say we'll swing 'til we're dead 'n' just as sure as we're born The town will watch us wriggle and they'll cheer in the square Though we're surrounded by the darkness I can see the light Just through these bars up above shine blinding rays of hope The morning sun should be a curse but lord it shines so bright We smile because we won't be at the end of no rope Don't get us wrong just now we're not afraid to die Trapped by the bars of steel 'n' these walls of brown This stick of dynamite is tellin' us it just ain't our time Just like the Walls of Jericho they'll come a'crumblin' down No prison bars can hold us men can try 'n' shoot us down We'll leave them lyin' in their graves and make our way right outta town Riding for the sunrise there's one thing that you can trust If you're gonna try 'n' stop us you'll be face down in the dust

Over the hill I can see the rising smoke Comanches, Texas Rangers, at each other's fucking throats Before I think, my guns are pulled I'm charging straight ahead The danger's of no consequence if rangers end up dead The lead I deal to them turns the air to crimson mist  As I run out of ammo I resort to knifes and fists My blade is stuck inside a skull whose eyes look terrified I turn around to see my comrades fighting by my side Blood, gore, scalps, and hair Glistening carnage everywhere Dead rangers wreak of shit Throw them down into the pit

The army's had us runnin' but we said we've had enough The Train she's right on time as we ride down from the bluff You think you're gonna catch us and we know you got no doubt But it's hard to lead a chase when your legs have been cut out These soldados cost us dearly and we're gonna make them pay Our horses, they grow weary as we spur them on their way One by one we board as we catch up to the caboose No one can see the hell that's about to be cut loose We bust right in they got no chance Their bodies do a funny dance Some go to draw turn white instead These uniforms are filled with lead From car to car we make our way The engineer is our next play We stop the train and see the light Crates of guns and dynamite Nothing could prepare us for a thing of beauty wait in store We thank the gods on bended knee for this dealer of brutality Spin the Crank and watch the bullets fly Breath in the smoke as it rises to the sky This touch of God cuts trees in half and all that we can do is laugh as we tear apart the countryside How could we be so foolish as to lose our sense of time In the distance there's a posse and they're charging down the line There are 20 maybe 30 of these armed, bloodthirsty men Our chambers full, our hammers pulled, prepared to fight again These dogs could not anticipate the carnage that upon them waits These pesky unsuspecting fleas ride for justice, keep the peace We'll put these bastards in their place Their God's eternal warm embrace Then we'll turn these mangy mutts into heaps of buzzard's guts Grief-stricken faces realize this fateful charge is suicide Our smiles can only spread so wide with this brand new weapon by our side
