Slow Movin' Outlaw

Lyrics

All your ol' stations are being torn down
 And the high-flying trains no longer roar
 The floors are all sagging with boards that are suffering
 From not being used anymore
 Things are all changing, the world's rearranging
 A time that will soon be no more
 Where has a slow movin'
 Once quick draw, outlaw got to go?
 ♪
 The whiskey that once settled the dust
 And tasted so fine, now taste so faint
 And the memories that once floated out, come back stronger
 More clearly with each drink you take
 The women that warmed you
 Once thought so pretty, now look haggard and old
 Where has a slow movin'
 Once quick draw, outlaw got to go?
 ♪
 The land where I travel once fashion with beauty
 Now stands with scars on her face
 The wide-open spaces are closing in quickly
 From the weight of the whole human race
 And it's not that I blame them for claiming her bounty
 I just wish they're takin' it slow
 'Cause where has a slow movin'
 Once quick draw, outlaw got to go?
 ♪
 Where has a slow movin'
 Once quick draw, outlaw got to go?
