Sunrise, this is the last day that I'll ever see
Out in the courtyard, they're ready for me
But I go to my Lord with no fear
'Cause I did what I did for Maria
ย
As I rode into town with the sun going down
All the windows were barred, there was no-one around
For they knew that I'd come with my hand on my gun
And revenge in my heart for Maria
My dearest departed Maria
Take an eye for an eye, and a life for a life
And somebody must die for the death of my wife
Yes, I did what I did for Maria
I did what I did for Maria
Laughter echoed across from the end of the street
There was the man I was burnin' to meet
And my mind was so calm and so clear
As I took my revenge for Maria
And he fell to the ground, raisin' dust all around
But I knew he was dead long before he went down
It was quick, it was clean, made it easy on him
Which is more than he did for Maria
When he did what he did to Maria
Take an eye for an eye, and a life for a life
And somebody must die for the death of my wife
Yes, I did what I did for Maria
I did what I did for Maria
ย
Sunrise, this is the last day that I'll ever see

But I go to my Lord with no fear
'Cause I did what I did for Maria
Take an eye for an eye, and a life for a life
And somebody must die for the death of my wife
Yes, I did what I did for Maria
I did what I did for Maria
Take an eye for an eye, and a life for a life
And somebody must die for the death of my wife
Yes, I did what I did for Maria
I did what I did for Maria
Take an eye for an eye, and a life for a life
And somebody must die for the death of my wife-
