Riding my way up to Devil's peak My horse, my rifle, my posse and me Couldn't see the signs but the signs were there We eventually eluded death Out of mind, out of breath Sun went hiding and the sky went black Something was hiding, something attacked Hush little baby, don't you cry no more Tears and prayers won't take you home Losing heart, losing hope Under the light of an adverse sun Our shadows taller than our guns The Evil One was in the way But I didn't look away I didn't look away Riding my way down off Devil's peak My horse, my rifle, and then only me Ten went riding, only two came back We eventually eluded death Under the light of an adverse sun Our shadows taller than our guns The Evil One was in the way But I didn't look away I didn't look away
