They call me the old devil
Do-gooder, cold rebel,
Unkempt, so disheveled
Yet I keep a shiny pistol

In my pocket, I'm the best
Marksman, here of the west
Crooked villains put to rest
Justice served, nothing less

Everyday until now
I turned it all around
They could burn it to the ground
But I'm the new sheriff in town
Without a badge and unrenowned
So you better watch out(stop)

From dusk until dawn
I buck up, instill laws
Culprits, I kill em all.
Revolvers and vicious thoughts

Go together, no aggressor
Will be given windfall
Until proven innocent

Rocky was an arch rival
better known as star child
Most the time, riled up
Starting fights and slightly drunk.

Spent his time in the saloon
From the night to the noon.
But one day he'd spark a fuse

When he thought that he could nab my girl
Tie her up and marry her
Cause now he's gonna have to answer
To my deadly derringer.

Found em in the hotel,
She was crying, with no help
From anyone, except myself
But Rocky pulled it from his belt.

"You got three seconds to let her out
before I pull the trigger now,"
I said with a gun in hand, while he was
Sitting down.

Then he slowly got up
Ready for the gunfight.
Steady with his thumb tight
Around the lever, "All right."

He said,
"Why don't we take this outside?
Mono y mono, before we shoot ourselves in the eyes."

Frozen in a standstill, well-aware that I can't kill
With the girl in the room, who let out a scant shrill.

He and I slowly moved - towards the door
Down the stairs, guns in place,
The working poor couldn't stand to see his face

It was quiet outside, not a howl from the wind.
Not a caw from the birds, or a meow from a kitten.

The sun was drawn high
Bout 5 till three
"Get em good, Old Devil."
"Show em up, Rocky."

We started walking backwards
No talking; taciturn. (stop)

"Put your gun in your holster."
"You first, you coward."
I could see we're getting nowhere.
Bout 4 to the hour

"When the clock strikes three,
why dont

Joshua,you should find another song like this but have the story somewhat about a Samurai in the West. Ya know? That would be AWESOME.

[NoneLikeJoshua]

@TheSpellNexus Already did. Check out "The Samurai" on my partner channel - youtube . com / nonelikejoshuamusic

[candylandzzz]

[NoneLikeJoshua]

@candylandzzz Thank you!

[xenothify]

I listen to this when i feel badass in the morning

[ZeRoLicKed]

I love this sort of narrative rapping and I think you should do more like this. It gives me reason to actually listen to the lyrics much more closely. It's such a shame you don't get as many views as you deserve. Keep up the good work!

[chickenboubou]

Awesome story told by awesome rapper.

[fuzzysocksFTW]

Still my favorite by you... best style in my opinion.

[Hedgehog3342]

ah the ending was perfect.

[DabigBM]

Talk about shivers down my back! Jesus christ :) Do more narrative music like this, 150% man!

[SketchKillerLaught]

I love you!!

[CabooseT3]

All stories should be told like this!

[2superm]

NOT A MEOW FROM A KITTEN...omg i love you

[BrianTheSage]

I wish I had recording equipment like you do.

You did a great remix of this song, no doubt, really captures that Old West, whiskey drinking, six shooting style. Good job, Josh.
