Oklahoma Joe lost it all on a roll   Lost his wife in El Paso   His luck ran out again      Mary headed west she may have guessed   He'd make a mess   He won't get another chance to waste her time again      Don't the heroes win after suffering   The sun will set again on your happy end   In another life      Prayed most every night   She'd done it right, she had the right   Cold and lonely winter nights   won't drag her back again      Don't the heroes win after suffering   The sun will set again on your happy end   In another life      Way out on the road   she'll know she has nowhere to go   Joe will come and take her home to forget it all again      Don't the heroes win after suffering   The sun will set again on your happy end   In another life
