Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Stormy night under jet black skies
Billy pulls into town
Thunder rolled and the lightning bolts
Come crashin' to the ground
[Verse 2]
Cold as ice, hard as stone, as he walks into the room
With another man who's feeling the same way
All hell's breakin' loose
[Verse 3]
Bang, bang, shoot 'em up
Bang, bang, blow you away
[Verse 4]
It's a showdown in a no man's land
For the cowboy (Cowboy) of the modern day
Come on, sundown, don't be hangin' round
'Cause the cowboy'll blow you away, yeah
[Verse 5]
Al Capone and the Bad Boy Jones
On the wrong side of the law
Johnny D and his company
Always first to the draw
[Verse 6]
Gangster lean, feeling so mean
Tryna take more than their share
'Cause all they saw was ruling it all
The scent of blood was in the air
[Verse 7]
Bang, bang, shoot 'em up
Bang, bang, blow you away
[Verse 8]
It's a showdown in a no man's land
For the cowboy (Cowboy) of the modern day
Come on, sundown, don't be hangin' round
'Cause the cowboy (Cowboy) will blow you away
[Verse 9]
So here we are and we've come this far
But it's only getting worse
Foreign lands with their terrorist demands
Only cause the good to hurt
[Verse 10]
The USA, the USSR
With their six-guns to the side
I see the message written on the wall
Too much anger deep inside
[Verse 11]
Bang, bang, shoot 'em up
Bang, bang, blow you away
[Verse 12]
It's a showdown in a no man's land
For the cowboy (Cowboy) of the modern day
Ah, come on, sundown, don't be hangin' round
'Cause the cowboy (Cowboy) will blow you away
[Verse 13]
It's a showdown
