Well there's always gonna be a bad guy
With a black tooth grin and a notched up gun
You can bet there's gonna be a problem
If you call the law and they're late showin' up
When we can't see the cover
Through the dust on our Bible what's next?

Who's gonna ride in and save the day?
Who's gonna throw that big John Wayne right hook?
When it looks like the every thing's gone to hell
Tell me who
What we need is more walk than talk
In the windshield not the rear view
Like some long lost song
'Cause this world's in trouble when the cowboys gone

There's always gonna be a fast horse
Saddled cinched up tight and ready to go
There's always gonna be a stiff drink
Waiting' in a town on down the road
When the dust cloud settles
Can you tell me who's gonna stand up?

Who's gonna ride in and save the day?
Who's gonna throw that big John Wayne
Right hook? When it looks like the every thing's gone to hell
Tell me who
What we need is more walk than talk
In the windshield not the rear view
Like some long lost song
'Cause this world's in trouble when the cowboys gone

When all but hope is lost and right's just another word

Who's gonna ride in and save the day?
Who's gonna throw that big John Wayne right hook?
When it looks like the every thing's gone to hell
Tell me who
What we need is more walk than talk
In the windshield not the rear view
Like some long lost song
'Cause this world's in trouble when the cowboys gone

(Ooh, the world's in trouble, the world's in trouble)
When the cowboys gone
(The world's in trouble, the world's in trouble)
When the cowboys gone
(Ooh, the world's in trouble, the world's in trouble when the cowboys gone)
(Ooh, the world's in trouble, the world's in trouble when the cowboys gone)
(Ooh, the world's in trouble, the world's in trouble when the cowboys gone)
