Lyrics

Border Line (Tale of Billy the Kid)

Kid I know that your cunning
Out here on the lose
But you can’t keep a runnin’
From the hangman’s noose

No you can’t keep a runnin’
And leave your past behind
Cause they’ll catch you at the border line
Yea they’ll catch you at the border line

But then they offer you a pardon
If you’ll just testify
But you later discover
It was just a damn lie

Kid you can’t keep a runnin’
And leave your past behind
Cause they’ll catch you at the border line
Yea they’ll catch you at the border line

Bill you can’t keep livin’
In the line of fire
You know Patrick’s comin’
And he won’t ever tire
No you can’t keep leadin’
A life of crime
No you can’t take it back
Cause they’ll catch you at the border line
Gonna catch you at the border line

You go to visit a friend
In the dark of night
But Garrett is waitin’
And takes you down on site

Bill you can’t keep a runnin’
And leave your past behind
Cause they’ll catch you at the border line
Yea they’ll catch you at the border line

Gonna catch you at the border line
Gonna catch you at the border line
Gonna catch you at the border line
