Who Are Those Guys

by Rocky Leplin

/

about

A bouyant, raucous, uptempo original western ballad with a highly varied instrumentation, based on a reengineering of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

lyrics

They’ve got the jump on the moon
They’re with the sun on the rise
They’re gonna be here soon
Who are those guys?

They come from over the hill
They took the long way around
They don’t have any supplies
Who are those guys?

Who are those guys?
They ride so tall in the saddle
Who are those guys?
They weren’t out ropin’ cattle

And though they’ve never been here before
They don’t seem a bit surprised
You can tell that they know you well
From the look in their eyes
Who are those guys
Who are those guys
Who are those guys?

Chorus
And it’s too late to save our town
It’s goin’ down, it’s goin’ down
And it’s too late to save our lives
But wait, there are horses in the distance
Wait, there’s a kick in the wind
Watch out, they move ahead with no resistance
And though they’ve never been here before
They don’t seem a bit surprised
You can tell they’re a match for hell
From the look in their eyes
Who are those guys
Who are those guys
Who are those guys?

Repeat Chorus

Though there’s gold in the hills
They haven’t staked any claim
They say ya can’t buy thrills
What is their name?
What is their name?
Who are those guys?
