I pulled out my Stage Coach Times
And I read the latest news
I tapped my feet in dumb surprise
And of course I saw they knew
The Pinkertons pulled out my bags
And asked me for my name
I stuttered out my answer
And hung my head in shame

Now they´ve found me
At last they´ve found me
It´s hard to run
From a starving family
Now they´ve found me
Well I won´t run
I´m tired of hearing
There goes a well-known gun

Now I´ve seen this chain gang
Lord I say let me see my priest
I couldn´t have faced your desert sand
Old burning brown backed beast
The poor house they hit me for my kin
And claimed my crumbling walls
Now I know how Reno felt
When he ran from the law

Now they´ve found me
At last they´ve found me
It´s hard to run
From a starving family
Now they´ve found me
Well I won´t run
I´m tired of hearing
There goes a well-known gun

Now they´ve found me
Lord I say at last they´ve found me
It´s hard to run
From a starving family
Lord I say now they´ve found me
Well I won´t run
I´m tired of hearing
There goes a well-known gun

Lord I say now they´ve found me
At last they´ve found me
It´s hard to run
From a starving family
Now they´ve found me
I won´t run
I´m tired of hearing
There goes a well-known gun
