Heard a knock on my door
I’d been pacing the floor
Waiting for them
Two dark figures sit down
Strike a match off the ground
The three of us lean in
They put a map on the table
And a bag of brand new cash
Told me this town’s got a k**er
And the money’s yours if you bring him back
So out that door on my horse
Grab my hat and my gun
Where’s his tracks, what’s his name
God I can’t wait to run
‘Cause it’s time
To send a k**er straight back to hell
And a bounty hunter
Is what I am
I’ll shoot him down on a hillside
And pump him full of lead
Or bring him right back to jail
But he’ll wish he was dead
I’ve been ridin’ two weeks
Tracking this dirty beast
Deep in the woods
One night my horse he got spooked
I jumped off and I move
To hind behind a bush
And we let off all our gunfire
When it ended he was on his back
His face looked just like his picture
Ugly outlaw with a black mustache
Back on that road on my horse
Grab my hat and my gun
Found his tracks, know his name
Man I can’t wait to run
‘Cause it’s time
To send a k**er straight back to hell
And a bounty hunter
Is what I am
I shot him down on a hillside
And pumped him full of lead
I’ll bring his a** back to jail
But he’s already dead
I rode back into town
They had to see it themselves
They asked what I’d do with all the money
I told ’em I’d go buy more shells
(That’s right)
Heard a knock on my door
I’d been pacing the floor
Waiting for them
