Ballad of Katie

Big man moves into town on a black horse
I wonder why
He kicks the dust off his black boots
He wipes his eyes
And all the men in all the town
All the people all around stand watching
There wondering here wondering now
Wondering who wondering how
Wondering why
He’s a lone traveler he’s been travelling 'round
He’s seen death valleys
He’s seen young men drown
He seeks a young lady take her home lay her down
He seeks a young lady take her home lay her down
Katie lives in the small town, she lives outside
She catches sight of the big man on the black horse
She likes his eyes
Of all the men in all the world she’s ever seen or
Ever heard she’s seen more like him…
She feels his eyes think they hurt
Feels the pain thinks its worse she’s wondering… why
Billy lives in the small town and he loves Katie
Oh he loves her life
He’d go over and kill the big man
Staring at Katie
But he don’t fight
No
He says oh hold on brother
Fore you go any further
Who’s eyes do you have on
She’s mine brother I could be her man
Get your black horse brother
Get you right out of this town
Get your black horse brother
Get you right out of this town
Big man leaves town on the black horse
He says goodbye
