I'll see you at sundown
You can't back out now
The news is all over town

I'll see you at sundown
And they can put one of us
In a hole in the ground, oh yeah

Now it's three in the afternoon
And I'm frightened to death waiting for you in the saloon
I wonder if he feels the same
For whoever wins there's still a cowboy to blame

Sundown, give me some strength
I know I can't go it alone
Sundown, give me your strength
Give me a chance to go home
To go home

Well even if I shouldn't win
And I'm frightened to death whеn it's in it again
I hear the revеrend feels it's a sin
(I'll get on my horse and ride)
For whoever wins he's going to carry the blame

Sundown, give me some strength
I know I can't go it alone oh
Sundown, give me your strength
Give me a chance to come home
