VERSE 1: They made me a criminal, but I ain't going down They caged me like an animal in this godforsaken town They hanged me up by rope and nail, and left me there to die With one foot in the underworld, I heard the devil cry
CHORUS 1: He shouted "Ride tall, hang if you fall This is your final stand Ride tall and shoot a hole in the wall and take this devil's hand...together we will rule this land"
VERSE 2: They rolled in like a thundercloud, they stormed in from the west My guns, they blazed a thousand times, and laid that scum to rest When everything was said and done, the devil made his pitch I said I may not be an angel, lord...but I ain't no devil's bitch
CHORUS 2: I 'm gonna ride tall, balls to the wall And make my final stand Ride tall, and let the dominoes fall I'll take no devil's hand Alone I will rule this land
VERSE 3: The devil came a ridin' through I told him where to go He said "I'll make a final bet with you... The winner takes it all"
His draw was quick, his aim was true His bullet pierced my heart But when he came to claim his rightful due I blew those horns apart
CHORUS 3: I shouted ride tall, winner takes all That was your final stand Ride tall, and now it's your turn to fall The dead know who I am An unforgiving man And though I may be damned Alone I rule this land
They made me a criminal...
