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
