Modern Day Cowboy

(アルバム： Mechanical Resonance - 1986)

Stormy night
Under jet-black skies
Billy pulls into town
Thunder rolled
And the lightning bolts
Come crashing to the ground

Cold as ice, hard as stone, as he walks into the room
With another man who was feeling the same way, all hell's breaking loose

Bang bang, shoot 'em up
Bang bang, blow you away
It's a showdown in the no man's land for the cowboy of the modern day
Come on, sundown
Don't be hanging 'round
'Cause the cowboy'll blow you away

Al Capone
And the Bad Boy Jones
On the wrong side of the law
Johnny D
And his company
Always first to the draw

Gangster lean
Feeling so mean
Tryna take more than their share
'Cause all they saw
Was ruling it all
The scent of blood was in the air

Bang bang, shoot 'em up
Bang bang, blow you away
It's a showdown in the no man's land for the cowboy of the modern day
Come on, sundown
Don't be hanging 'round
'Cause the cowboy'll blow you away

So here we are
And we've come this far
But it's only getting worse
Foreign lands
With their terrorist demands
Only cause the good to hurt

The U.S.A., the U.S.S.R. with their six-guns to the side
I see the message written on the wall. Too much anger deep inside

Bang bang, I shoot 'em up
Bang bang, blow you away
It's a showdown in the no man's land for the cowboy of the modern day
Oh, come on, sundown
Don't be hanging 'round
'Cause the cowboy'll blow you away

It's a showdown!
