No Glory in the West

Lyrics

They say Paris is dead
 Lived through London and drank through Memphis
 The things you live by were once just a guess
 And there ain't no glory in the West
 No, there ain't no glory in the West
 Hard to think on your feet
 Tired of begging and just to compete
 Shoot to win can feel so bittersweet
 But you take what you can get
 'Cause there ain't no glory in the West
 Blazing on ahead
 Burning through it
 Coming down the bend
 Nowhere left to go
 Going's all we know
 Riding past the best
 Then there's still no rest
 And there's still no rest
 There ain't glory in the West
 ♪
 What's a boy to do?
 Hit the road with a dollar or two
 Haunted by what he knows he can't do
 Gets it off his chest
 'Cause there ain't no glory in the West
 Burning on ahead
 Blazing through it
 Running blind again
 Nowhere left to go
 Going's all we know
 Riding past the best
 And there's still no rest
 And there's still no rest
 And there's still no rest
 'Cause there ain't no glory in the West
 ♪
 "Count your blessings," they'll say
 And after each midnight begins a new day
 But don't place your bets on a word that they say
 They'll put your life to rest
 'Cause there ain't no glory in the West
 No there ain't no glory in the West
 There ain't no glory in the West
