Ridin that night and the the moon is high   Gotta hell hound on my trail   Got to cross the rio grande   And never let me out of that jail   Feel the cool desert air... whippin' accross my face   Don't make a sound stay close to the ground   Got to leave without a trace      Like my daddy before me...   Said the son of the seventh son   I can't sit still when the night time comes   My spirit always on the run   I've done wrong everyone I loved   And I live with broken hearts   The hell hounds on my trail      I watched one after another as they died   They took my heart and left me cold inside      Chorus:   Tonight I ride...one last ride   My past is close behind me...my pistol by my side   Gotta keep on ridin'...time's not on my side   I'm a pistol totin' gamblin' man   Time for one last ride.   Just a simple country boy without a lick of sense   30.6 colt 45 rode a thousand of fence   When you ride with the devil, baby... you heed with the devil's call   Can't sing with the angels when the hell you're bound to fall.      Town folks watched as he locked himself inside   The new this torchered man was bound to die   He took the lonliness to his grave   The poor boy's soul could not be saved   The boy had finally taken his last ride.      Chorus:   Tonight I ride...one last ride   My past is close behind me...my pistol by my side   Gotta keep on ridin'...time's not on my side   I'm a whiskey drinkin' gamblin' man   Time for one last ride... so I keep on ride..one last ride   My past is close behind me...my pistol by my side   Gotta keep on ridin'...time's not on my side   I'm a pistol totin' gamblin' man   Time for one last ride.
