Stealing Cows

Lyrics:
This is the life of a farmer
Who had a hundred cows
This is the life of a farmer
The happiest I´ve ever known
But a bad day
Devil come to his house
But a bad day
Satan killed his cows
Chorus:
Now he steals for living
Other farmer´s cows
His family is starving
And the Sheriff´s coming home
Yeehaw! (I. Onetooth guitar solo)
His life is full of trouble
He steals to pay his deals
His life is full of trouble
My friend, this story is real!
His wife has left him
He drinks to forget
His wife has left him
And his life means no shit!
Yeehaw! (Rev. Rivers (banjo) & A. Winchester (harmonica) solos)
Chorus

Lyrics:
In the North of Spain
There is a legendary road
In which you can live
And drive on your own
It's National 240
From sea to sea
Lorrys, cars and bikes
And a lot more to see
Chorus:
Tarragona, Valls and Montblanc
Lleida, Almacelles, Binéfar and Monzón
Barbastro, Huesca, Sabiñánigo and Jaca
Pamplona, Vitoria and Bilbao, one on one.
Five hundred and fifty kilometres
As hot as Kentucky sand
Black pure melting asphalt
Burning the tires above the sun
Yeehaw! (I. Onetooth guitar solo)
In KP 130
The bluegrass village lies
Its name is Binéfar
The village of our lifes
Chorus
Yeehaw! (Rev. Rivers banjo solo)
But in the filthy future
The road won't be the same
'couse the mighty goverment
is building a motorway
Chorus

50 Bullets

Lyrics:
In the middle of the field
There is a corpse lying
I’ll tell you the true story
If I don't start... crying
It was a Summer morning
The hottest day of the year
Into the slaughterhouse
The final hour was... near
Chorus:
Policeman shooting
To kill the bull
50 bullets shooted
its body is full
Yeehaw! (Rev. Rivers banjo solo)
At the slaughterhouse
The bull jumped the wall
It ran to the hills
And the police was... called
After a whole day
The police found the beast
They shooted their guns
And the sheriff used... his fist
Chorus
Yeehaw! (I. Onetooth guitar solo)
Chorus
50 bullets to kill the bull
50 bullets it bited the dust
50 bullets to rip his soul
50 bullets in the sheriff we trust

Arizona Lady

Lyrics:
Lighter than a buffalo
Fatter than a human being
Guns out in the saloon
When they come in
Some time ago, my friend
The hunter went to the pond
Something moved within the bushes
And the tale was born
Chorus:
Arizona lady, Arizona lady
Coming in the night
Arizona lady, Arizona lady
Set up for the fight
Yeehaw! (I. Onetooth guitar solo)
Stinky the apache chief
Saw her in the fire
He knew she came from hell
But he couldn’t help the desire
A night in the saloon
The mine worker was alone
She came through the door
And they came along
Chorus
Yeehaw! (Rev. Rivers banjo solo)
Chorus
Three men died
In a rag-time of pain
Three corpses were found
In the train lane...

Tornado Season

Lyrics:
The wind carries something
from May 'till September
I'll ask my grandpa
for sure he will remember
The dust knocks on your door
and it owls from the west
you can feel the presence
when it comes as a guest
Chorus:
Vultures fly in cyrcles
over the sweet smell of death
a tornado is gathering
there is no time to rest
The tornado is gathering
coming to town
run for your lifes
or we'll die before dawn
But year after year
when leaves start falling
life starts again and
life keeps on rolling
Chorus
Yeehaw!
Ismael Onetooth - guitar solo
Idoia Tumbleweed - bass solo
Rev. Rivers - armonica solo
Repeat verses 1&4
Chorus
