Lyrics Eric Johnson

Eric Johnson

Showdown

Lived in Santa Fe

Jacob never wore his side guns

Till news broke out

Black Bart was back in town

Bart was gunning for the sheriff

Revenge burned in his eyes

Rosie tried to stop the Marshall

As he left tears fell from her eyes

Showdown in town

Don't you lose your life

Put down your gun

Stay inside tonight

Jacob's men were on the rooftop

With artillery

Shots rang out Bart's men were fallin'

Someone's callin' Marshall's

On the ground

And Rose ran up to him and cried

Oh Lord

Oh will you ever see

Oh what you mean to me

And will we always be together

Oh together

Chorus

Showdown in town

Lord what have they done

Cause in the end

No one really won
