Текст песни: Train Robbers + перевод

Corby and the Bar X boys were dealin' cowboy pitch

In a lean too line shack on the Milk River ridge

The bets were high and the talk was low

When the rounders had to fold

Thirty days out on the plains workin' wrangler Joe

I ain’t gonna dally cows no more, I’ll tell you what I’ll do

Gonna lay it all out on the line when the mail train rolls through

Chorus:

We’re gonna rob the mail train Regina to Saskatoon

We’re gonna take all the money and make off with the loot

Saddle up our horses and ride for the Cypress Hills

They ain’t gonna find us and I don’t think they ever will

Bill Miner took the Kamloops train across the great divide

But they got him down in Milledgeville doing hard time

The West is hard as nails but there’s hope in horseshoes

And I hear tell of a baggage car of money rolling through

We’re heading North to Pile’o’bones, we’re gonna stake it all

So cinch your saddles tight boys, we’re running from the law

There’s blood on the cinders and smoke on the tracks

With hundred dollar bills in the saddle bags

They blazed a trail a mile wide down across the line

With the sands of the hourglass running short of time

The bourbon that they drank was the best they ever tasted

They spent their money on wild women and the rest they just wasted

Chorus

Instrumental

Down in South Dakota on a twist of fate

A Palomino horse with a leg bone break

They laid out the drover and folded up his arms

With a jack-of-diamonds playing card underneath his palm

Below the barbed wire on the back fourty

The mounties always get their man

And don’t play cards with Corby
