If I should fail |
| I’m trapped on this mountain, two more hours 'til dawn |
| If they’d come in the morning, I’ll have both guns drawn |
| I looked down the canyon, I can see their fires |
| All of my companions captured or expired |
| And if I should fail on this fearful trail |
| Surrounded and alone and still pursued |
| If I don’t prevail, if you get this mail |
| Know the last thing that I think of will be you |
| I’ve seen storms erasing every dream I knew |
| But this danger I’m facing is the worst I’ve gone through |
| Your picture before me laying on a stone |
| The one where you’re smiling, holding one red rose |
| And if I should fail on this fearful trail |
| Surrounded and alone and still pursued |
| If I don’t prevail, if you get this mail |
| Know the last thing that I think of will be you |
| If they come with the rising sun, I will know by the hush of the birds |
| And the snapping of the twigs as they move in |
| I got a canteen full of rum if the worst occurs |
| I will drink it dry before the end begins |
| And if I should fail on this fearful trail |
| Surrounded and alone and still pursued |
| If I don’t prevail, if you get this mail |
| Know the last thing that I think of will be you |
| And if I should fail on this fearful trail |
| Surrounded and alone and still pursued |
| If I don’t prevail, if you get this mail |
| Know the last thing that I think of will be you |
