Текст песни The Ballad of Asa Dalton (Have Gun, Will Travel) с переводом

There was money on the table

There was murder in his eyes

Served some time in Brayford prison

Killed a half-dozen guys

Even in that smokey bar room

I could see through his disguise

When I played the Queen of diamonds

He was taken by surprise

There was whisky on the table

There was trouble in the air

Guess he didn’t see it coming

When I beat him fair and square

And I swear I could see the Devil

Face that shot me such a glare

If a look could kill a person

I would have died right then and there

(One, Two, One, Two, Three, Four)

There was tension at the table

Tension all around the room

And heavy in the parlor

Like the air inside a tube

There was a moment of confusion

Words and accusations flew

And a single shot was fired

From a loaded .22

There lie Asa on the table

He had blood on his lapel

When he reached for his revolver

Must of' reached for mine as well

Asa had it coming, far as anyone could tell

That’s exactly how it happened

The day that Asa Dalton fell

(One, Two, One, Two, Three, Four)

(One more time)
