D-DU-UDU
Come on down and meet your maker
Come on down and make the Stand
Oh, I have been out searching
With this black book in my hand
And I've looked between the lines that lie on the pages
That I've tread
I met the walking dude, religious in his worn down cowboy boots
He walked liked no man on earth I swear he had no name
Swear he had no name
Come on down and meet your maker
Come on down and make the Stand
Come on down, come on down
Come on down we'll make the Stand
As I crawled beneath the searchlights
Looking through the floorboards of this life
I met doctor Strangeloves cousin
He bore the marks of time
"Hey! Trashcan, where you going boy
Your eyes are feet apart
Is that the end you're carrying
Shall I play the funeral march?"
Play the funeral march
REAPEAT CHORUS:
When I looked out the window on the hardship that had struck
I saw the seven phials open the plague claimed man and son
Four men at a grave in silence got their hats bowed down in grace
A simple wooden cross had no epitaph engraved
No Epitaph engraved
REPEAT CHORUS:
Come roll out the red carpet come bugler sound the horn
For the hero is returning gotta welcome him to his home
Don't say I didn't warn you this prophesy is coming true
I can hear the cavalry thundering
Riding over the hill, riding over the hill
