Dr. Awkward - By the Gun (All-Star Western) lyrics

[verse 1] A lone man, lost in a world gone by An obsolete model only knows one life Left in a wake as the time marched on And he longs for the days that are so far gone The world would be different Only if his side had won So the soldier turned hired gun Job's a job; he's no stranger to the dirt Cause the honest men never gets the work This new piece, it doesn't really do it for him 1880 and he still wears the uniform They move forward and he doesn't make the trip The only absolute, the two guns on his hip They're two worlds, like they're destined to meet They trade the Wild West for industrial streets Get in his way and he won't hesitate to hurt ya His biggest enemy's inertia [Chorus x2] He is the answer He is the one Lives by the code To die by the gun To live and die by the gun [verse 2] He walks alone on the path he's reluctantly shown Find himself in a world that is so far from home Another thief met with blast and reload The coldest man has a code Friend to no man, enemy to many You'll be lucky if you're met with little sympathy, if any A man apart bringing honor to the fall He's been on both sides of the law They call him Jonah More accurately Hex He leaves nothing in his wake but destruction and distress He's not concerned with the crime or the proof This man only seeks the truth In the world of tomorrow, he can't turn the page So the war of before made the man of today Get in his way, and there's no chance to run You're on the wrong side of the gun [Chorus x2] He is the answer He is the one Lives by the code To die by the gun To live and die by the gun
