Текст песни: Barracuda Dan + перевод

Do you recall that bank job in 1881?

We lit out 'cross the country, spent a whole year on the run

Not seeing where we went, just looking back the way we come

We didn’t see the Sheriff sneak up on us from the front

Hey Barracuda Dan

He was a straight lawman

His teeth were a tombstone’s span, no, no

One look and the badmen ran

We had to fight it out there though we knew it were no use

We both knew Barracuda and we knew we had to lose

But better dyin' Dan’s way than dyin' in a noose

And swingin while the people cheered and jeered and spat abuse

You tried to rope his horse and I fired at his head

He caught the bullet in his teeth and spat it in my leg

And bit the lassoo through so’s it was you that fell instead

Then Barracuda’s face said «hold it, one move and you’re dead»

«Now even I can’t do all that the law requires me to,»

Said Dan, «I don’t believe in hangin', here’s what I’ll do

I’ll take your horses, cash and guns, the rest is up to you»

He left us 'neath the desert sun in 1882
