Lyrics for singles by Outlaws

Green Grass And High Tides Forever
There Goes Another Love Song
You Are The Show
Hurry Sundown
Ghost Riders In the Sky



Green Grass And High Tides Forever

In a place you only dream of
Where your soul is always free
Silver stages, golden curtains
Filled my head, plain as can be
As a rainbow grew around the sun
All the stars I've loved who died
Came from somewhere beyond the scene you see
These lovely people played just for me

Now if I let you see this place
Where stories all ring true
Will you let me past your face
To see what's really you
It's not for me I ask these questions
As though I were a king
For you have to love, believe and feel
Before the burst of tambourines take you there

Green grass and high tides forever
Castles of stone souls and glory
Lost faces say we adore you
As kings and queens bow and play for you

Those who don't believe me
Find your souls and set them free
Those who do, believe and love
As time will be your key
Time and time again I've thanked them
For a peace of mind
They helped me find myself
Amongst the music and the rhyme
That enchants you there

(chorus)




There Goes Another Love Song

Sometimes I feel I am gettin' kinda low
thoughts I am thinkin' are the reason
so, I try to remember without talkin' to myself
things that I've said or maybe things that I felt about you

Sittin' in a corner of a crowded bar room
people all around me and I still feel alone
just when I know I'm gonna break down and cry
someone played the tune that dried the tear from my eye

There goes another love song
someone's singin' about me again
there goes another love song
now I need more then a friend

Lonesome and lonely and far from my home
tryin' to get back to where I know I belong
wishin' and hopin' I was already there;
I just heard a voice that whispered in my ear




You Are The Show

My life keeps changin'
Seasons seem to come and go
Too fast for me to remember who I am
I, myself
The crowds and faces
The times and places
I don't know
I'm just the player
You are the show
You are the show
You are the show
You are the show

An honest man
With a dealer's hand
He played to lose
No signs of fortune
No lucky lady by his side
His heart died
A game of chance
A lost romance is found
Once more
We're just the players
You are the show
You are the show
Don't you know
You are the show
You are the show




Hurry Sundown

Gypsies danced around the campfire
Shook their tambourines
They were waiting for the ghost of an outlaw
Sundown was his name
As the midnight hour grew closer
And the sky began to fall
You could see his shadow
In the light of the moon
He had heard the gypsies' call

She had hair as black as darkness
Her eyes were emerald green
Oh, her voice was soft and tender
And, oooh, she loved to sing
She will sing no more or dance again
Or shake her tambourines
They had taken her away
She was dead and gone
You can hear the gypsies sing

Ooh, ooh, hurry Sundown
(The gypsies cry)
Ooh, ooh, hurry Sundown
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown
(Oh, the gypsies cried)
For her Sundown

Ooh, ooh, hurry Sundown
(Gypsies cry)
Ooh, ooh, hurry Sundown
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown
(Oh, the gypsies cried)

Silver devils in his holsters
Stars strapped to his heels
There was fire in his eyes
They say that he was dressed to kill
He had hands as fast as lightning
A heart as cold as steel
He had come for the one that took her life
Lying in Boothill




Ghost Riders In the Sky

An old cowpoke went riding out one dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw
A'plowin' through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw

Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
Ghost riders in the sky

Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
Their horns wuz black and shiny and their hot breaths he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
For he saw the riders comin' hard and he heard their mournful cry

Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
Ghost riders in the sky

Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, and shirts all soaked with sweat
They're ridin' hard to catch that herd but they ain't caught them yet
They've got to ride forever in that range up in the sky
On horses snortin' fire, as they ride on, hear their cry

Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
Ghost riders in the sky

As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name
"If you want to save your soul from hell a' ridin' on our range
Then, cowboy, change your ways today or with us you will ride
A-tryin' to catch the Devil's herd across these endless skies."
