Ridin' that night and the moon is high, got a hell hound on my trail
Got to cross the Rio Grande, they never let me out of that jail
Feel the cool, desert air, go whipping across my face
Don't make a sound, stay close to the ground
Got to leave without a trace
ย
Like my daddy before me, said the son of the seventh son
I can't sit still when the night time comes, my spirit's always on the run
I've done wrong everyone I loved, and I'm livin' with that pain
Seven girls with broken hearts, the hell hounds on my trail
I watched one after another as they died
They took my heart and left me cold inside
Tonight I ride, one last ride
My past is close behind me, my pistol by my side
Gotta keep on ridin', time's not on my side
I'm a pistol totin', gamblin' man
Time for one last ride
ย
Just a simple country boy, without a lick of sense
Thirty-aught-six Colt 45, rode a thousand miles of fence
When you ride with the devil, baby, you heed with the devil's call
Can't sing with the angels when to hell you're bound to fall
ย
Town folks watched as he locked himself inside
They knew this tortured man was bound to die
He took the loneliness to his grave
The poor boy's soul could not be saved
The boy had finally taken his last ride
ย
Tonight I ride, one last ride
My past is close behind me, my pistol by my side
Gotta keep on ridin', time's not on my side
I'm a whiskey drinkin', gamblin' man
Time for one last ride
So I keep on riding, one last ride
My past is close behind me, my pistol by my side
Gotta keep on ridin', time's not on my side
I'm a pistol totin', gamblin' man
Time for one last ride
