Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tonight I'm gonna sleep in a good hotel
A nice warm bed if all goes well
I've been out in the badlands twenty one days
Tracking my bounty down
[Verse 2]
He was only a kid maybe seventeen
But he traded love away from a streak of mean
Now he's tied to my saddle with his head hung low
Out on the Glory Road
[Verse 3]
So all you downtown ladies won't you dress in style
Got some gold in my saddle bags I'd trade it for a smile
Let's have dinner on the devil tonight
Tomorrow there'll be hell to pay won't you come along
I'll be riding on the glory road someday
[Verse 4]
Two men painted painted on a midnight sky
One slung low the other riding high
I wonder if anybody knows just why I had to shoot him down
[Verse 5]
And now I'd lay me down to rest
God bless the boy my bullet in his chest
But you can't bless me 'cause I lost my soul
Out on the Glory Road
[Verse 6]
So all you downtown ladies won't you dress in style?
Got some gold in my saddle bags I'd trade it for a smile
Let's have dinner on the devil tonight
Tomorrow there'll be hell to pay won't you come along
I'll be riding on the glory road someday
Won't you come along I'll be riding on the glory road someday
