"Martyr Of A Man" lyrics

I been staying up all night, I can't sleep a wink
Life is almost over now, ain't got time to think
Ain't got time to think
Hangman, take my wedding band and drop the floor on me
All it's worth ain't all it cost, I'm achin' to be free
Achin' to be free

Time ain't a steady hand
He's loose and loaded by the Rio Grande
Choose your words wisely, son
You ain't got a knife or gun
Or any shot in hell to run
Just keep up with the band
The crowd loves the martyr of a man

I set out for glory, boys, I hang my head high
I can tell a story like a bald eagle flies
Bald eagle flies
Always here and never near a Colorado sky
You need years of holding tears to see through my disguise
See through my disguise

Time ain't a steady hand
He's loose and loaded by the Rio Grande
Choose your words wisely, son
You ain't got a knife or gun
Or any shot in hell to run
Just keep up with the band
The crowd loves the martyr of a man
The crowd loves the martyr of a man
