[Verse 1]
Hands up, and give me that gold
Cock my gun, babe, and watch me roll
Time locked all this land
Can’t get more of what you can’t get back

[Verse 2]
I wait by your side
Calm as a coyote with his teeth spread wide
Night lives wind the room
Bleeding out their bottles ‘neath a blackjack moon

[Chorus]
Highway and a loaded gun
Lawless trigger and all is won
Blood, love, gold and debt
All is buried in the wild west

[Verse 3]
Hands up, and give me that gold
Load the dice, babe, and watch me roll
I’ll trial every suit
Judge and the jury and the hitman too

[Verse 4]
Warden of this dance
Ticking down the minutes with his hangman hands
Kiln dust, diamond mine
Everything i ever want is in your eye


[Chorus]
Highway and a loaded gun
Honest trigger and all is won
Blood, love, gold and debt
But your law means nothing in the wild west
