just a hired gun, so let it go,
2 bottles of red will drown the pain
got my left ear to the window
I love the sound of pouring rain
sometimes you stumble at the crossroads
sometimes you’ve gotta say “goodbye”
the house crashed down and the ceiling flew away
now I see the sky....

goodbye, I know, it’s time to go
goodbye, don’t cry, we closed the show,
I’m just a hired gun you loved along the way
send me a kiss, you’re gonna brighten up my day

just a hired gun and it’s all cool
crazy gamblers loose their bets
just a hired gun, but I ain’t no fool,
no guilty conscience, no regrets
you make a right turn at the crossroads
i’ll hang a left, there’ll be no scars
the house crashed down and the ceiling flew away
now I see the stars

goodbye, i know, it’s time to go
goodbye, don’t cry, we closed the show
from time to time you got know words to say
send me a kiss and brighten up my day
goodbye, that’s it, it’s time to quit
you see, we’re free, no more bullshit
and I’m just a hired gun you loved along the way
send me a kiss, you’re gonna brighten up my day

12 times down, 13 times get up
go and read the writing on the wall
I got big eyes round my coffee cup
I can see it all
It’s a lonely road and that’s ok
me, I’m just a hired gun
the house crashed down and the ceiling flew away
now I see the sun....

goodbye, i know, it’s time to go
goodbye, don’t cry, we closed the show
from time to time you got know words to say
send me a kiss and brighten up my day
goodbye, that’s it, it’s time to quit
