Verse 1
When he came in, the room fell silent
Cept' the sound'a gold his pockets were lined with…
Saloon doors swingin' behind him
That look in his eyes n' smile on his chin said he liked things that don't belong to him…
She was no exception
She was the prettiest girl servin' cowboys drinks
He pulled his gun and said girl you're comin' upstairs with me
When he grabbed her arm she said…
Chorus (short)
I ain't yours to take
So get on your horse and ride away
Cuz I'm the daughter of a wanted man with a fast hand
And I know, you won't stand a chance
Verse II
He said I ain't scared and I ain't waitin'
From what I can see, your daddy ain't here to save ya'
But that's when he walked in..
He was worn and weathered
45's n' leather
With blue steel eyes he said son you'd better… run…
Run boy run..
Yeah…
Chorus (full)
She ain't yours to take
Get on your horse and ride away
Cuz' you're starin' at a wanted man with a fast hand
And I know you don't stand a chance
Oh, you won't stand a chance
No, you don't … nah you won't…
Sta-nd a chance…
Verse III option i
Too much pride and too much whiskey
In the stranger's mind he said his bullets'll miss me
So he drew first..
But Daddy was ready, n'sent a flurry of lead
The stranger collapsed, his white shirt turned to red
Her words echoed in his head…
Chorus
I ain't yours to take
So get on your horse and ride away
Cuz I'm the daughter of a wanted man with a fast hand
And I know, you won't stand a chance
Oh, you won't stand a chance
No, you don't … nah you won't…
Sta-nd a chance…
Outro (Verse music)
You don't stand a chance
You don't stand a chance
