A.J. Babcock - Pioneer lyrics

[Verse 1] What ever happened to the outlaw? Mighty men who were great and flawed What ever happened to the renegade? Modern man came and put him in a cage What ever happened to the pioneer Who faced the great unknown with a trembling fear? What ever happened to the hard and lean Cut their way through the world with a primal scream Yeah! [Chorus] Oh, pioneer Don't seem like a choice to me You can be safe or you can be free Oh, pioneer No law in the new frontier Keep you eyes open and your pistol near [Verse 2] Welcome back to the neighborhood A few things should be understood 'Round here I'm your only friend Your priest, your blood, your protection Open your eyes, it's us and them Cops still cheat and saints still sin But the hunger in our belly makes us hard and lean Cut our way through the world with a primal scream [Chorus] [Bridge] I don't have no fear, I'm a... In a new frontier, I'm a... Keep your pistol near, I'm a... Pioneer [Chorus]
